I wonder - can FreeBSD live in a logical partition and be loaded by Lilo or by other boot managers? That would make it easier to play with since it could live in parallel with Linux.
Yes and yes.
And what filesystems if any can FreeBSD share with Linux?
Linux can read FreeBSDs UFS (write support is experimental). I don't know if FreeBSD can handle ext2 but like Linux it should read and write FAT.
FAT may be the one format everyone can read and write, but the 8.3 case-insensitive filename format can be pretty limiting sometimes. I wonder if any of the other less-common filesystems like VFAT, UMSDOS, and maybe System V, which Linux can handle, are available under FreeBSD?
