OK, here's the background image in PCX format (for the
boot loader) and PNG format (so you can view it in your
web browser):

I've added instructions for DragonFly BSD to my wiki page.
Please refer to the section titled "Special notes for
DragonFly BSD" at the end of the page:

If everything goes right, it should look similar to this
screen shot:

I have tested it with a kernel from a DF 2.2 release ISO
in qemu only, which works fine (currently I don't have any
spare hardware dedicated to DragonFly, so I couldn't easily
test it on real silicon).
Best regards

That appears to be good work, and should perform as expected.
Thank you for that.
I've found my notes on the boot0 portion, but will have to recode the
(n)asm, 'later', as I've lost the actual source mods.
