I don't think you can put a FreeBSD boot1/boot2 onto a DragonFly
slice and have a result that works. boot1 and boot2 hardwire each
other's load addresses and boot2 is located at a different offset on
a DragonFly slice then on a FreeBSD slice.
What access mode is your BIOS using for that disk? If it isn't set
to LBA mode, try setting it to LBA.
