I've tried to install both FreeBSD and OpenBSD but I face problems with the BIOS. Indeed the machines have Alpha BIOS instead SRM.

FreeBSD does not yet support booting from AlphaBIOS. The FreeBSD Alpha team is working on a solution for this problem but until they come up with something like MILO for you need to be using the SRM firmware. I dont know if the 164LX has SRM available for it but you would have to check DEC's site or the archives for that one.
