I take it that this is not the same board you've been having
problems with for the past several months  ?

Can you give a little more information about the place the DragonFly
CD seems to make it to. Perhaps at the loader type 'boot -v' and that
may help give us some more indication of the problem.

Are you trying to boot off the SATA ? If or even if not it could be the
nForce chipset on the board doing something odd.
