A difficult task. PC-BSD grub scripts do not recognise linux partitions so after PC-BSD install all other systems are gone. Additionally it trashed the swap partition and it uses the ZFS filesystem. I was able to install ZFS on OpenSUSE but I fear it is not a good idea to exchange data by this way and in order to work with ZFS there is a big portion of research necessary. My Linux partitions are ext4 which FreeBSD doesn't support. So another ext2 partiton for data exchange is necessary. Also I did not manage to start PC-BSD from Linux Grub2 up to now. Theoretical it should be possible with a chain loader. Probably a work of several days in the end...
