Probably, as long as all the other files are hard-linked as they should be :) Do an ls -lR of each system and then edit the results if necessary to get identical results that you can check with diff to see if they are the same. That should confirm that you have exactly the same files and that they are linked in the same way. Filesystems vary in how much metadata they keep for each file, and how much space they 'waste' at the end of every file and so forth, so if you care you could investigate the BSD system and then compare against ext2/4.
