What do you mean by ``If you pick dports, you have to relocate

I mean, type something like this "mv /usr/pkg /usr/pkg.moved"
You don't need to delete it, but usually dragonfly images come with some libraries and binaries preinstalled there.

 I am thinking that I should
just use pkg and if I run
# pkg update
it will update all the installed packages?
I apologize for asking, but the handbook which I have read several
times does not give a clear cut answer :(

Yeah.
The freebsd handbook can be helpful:

The good part that I am understanding is that if I use Dports (pkg)
then I can also build from source, but not to use pkgsrc and Dports at
the same time.

correct.

Firefox asks that one puts sem_load="YES" into /boot/loader.conf, but
I include that in /boot/loader.conf and I get that kernel sem not
found at startup.  Is this important?

Hmm?
I've never heard of that.
dports firefox?
In any case, I think you can ignore it.
