On DS with original style boom/gooseneck, you'll need to pull the boom away from the mast to disengage the square section of the gooseneck from the boom. The fixture is spring-loaded, and designed to keep the square section in the square hole in the boom end.
Regarding putting a patch of sunbrella across the foot of the sail, when you roll the sail around the boom the foot (and sunbrella) will be inside the roll.
