Because DragonFly and FreeBSD have the same partition id (165,)
FreeBSD's installer will see the DragonFly partition as a FreeBSD slice.
And, *even if you don't set up any BSD partitions on the DragonFly
partition*, the installer will erase the DragonFly partition's
disklabel.
Could You tell, what was the version of FreeBSD, which caused such a
problem, and if this problem occur rather often or always for that
version?
The fact is that I've installed FreeBSD 4.9 on a drive with DragonFly
1.2 and boot them with DragonFly bootloader with no extra manipulations.
