Hi,

As far as I'm aware, you might be better of with another OS for now...
Qemu with TCG is far too slow to be worth the hassle*. Hardware VT
extensions don't seem to be used by DragonFlyBSD yet, with VKERNEL for
DragonFly on DragonFly being present.

* except if your only goal might be backwards compatibility, and you
don't care if you get only 250MIPS as the upper limit.
