I can't answer your question directly, but I think most operating systems support EFI boot. So if you have a modern UEFI bios, you might want to try ditch your grub mbr setup for both Linux and BSD.
On the Linux side, the Arch docs are usually most helpful, maybe starting here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd-boot IIRC, I have a single bios vfat boot partition shared among OSes and mounted (or mountable) as /boot under Linux.

Has anyone done so? If so, how? -- Anthony Carrico
