Then it's a completely different issue causing the boot problem on DragonFly:

I tried all of the following and I still get hung up just after the detection
of my DVD-ROM.
hint.acpi.0.disabled=1 # disable ACPI (i386 only)
hw.ata.ata_dma=0       # disable IDE DMA
hw.ata.atapi_dma=0     # disable ATAPI/IDE DMA
hw.ata.wc=0            # disable IDE disk write cache
hw.eisa_slots=0        # disable probing for EISA devices
I built the GENERIC kernel and that doesn't boot.
	Have you tried removing APM?  APM is enabled in the GENERIC
	kernel, and it can possibly be the culprit.
