bsd's all use the UFS filesystem
derived from 4.2 BSD

You can mount ext2 from FreeBSD
and you can mount UFS filesystems from BSD

obstacles to cooperation are less daunting than you might think.

read the man pages for mount, newfs and fsck
to get the gory details.

I've read the FTM and I'm still not sure. I *think* that the filesystems
used by FreeBSD are different from the ext2 system used by linux so I
couldn't have the two OS's coexisting and reading the same home directory.
But I couldn't find any explicit discussion of this point in the FreeBSD
manual.
