	Cool!  Now that you say it, I should probably write up a little
	article/docco for DragonFly's Process Checkpointing capability.

	DragonFly does not have support for UFS2, yet.  Some of us are
	working on it, but it is a tough cookie to handle.  Anyways,
	you would need to tell FreeBSD to explicitly create UFS1
	partitions to make it coexist with DragonFly.

	Hope this helps,
