How do you run a VM? I'm using this set of parameters and it works fine:

qemu-system-x86_64
	-m 4096
	-drive if=virtio,file=dragonflybsd.qcow2,format=qcow2,index=0,id=disk
	-device ahci,id=disk
	-netdev user,id=mynet0,hostfwd=tcp::8822-:22
	-device e1000,netdev=mynet0
	-smp 4
	-cpu host
	-enable-kvm
	-display gtk

And yes, i installed DragonFly in a legacy BIOS mode, too.
