I use grub since a long time and the also grub's ability to show a bootsplash
(splashimage= in grub.conf). The bootsplash disappears after starting the
boot process of an OS, so I wouldn't get a bootsplash while loading
DragonFly.
Nevertheless is it a good idea to install grub to get rid of the boring
Dragonfly bootloader ;-)
It *appears* to me, that DragonFly switches for a split of a second into
graphic mode (a ultra-short flickering on the screen), but then switches back
to text output.
