Linux calls it ffs, so:

mount -t ffs /dev/hdaX /mnt/FreeBSD
where hdaX is the partition where freeBSD resides.

or add the line:
/dev/hdaX	/mnt/FreeBSD	ffs	defaults
in your /etc/fstab file to mount FreeBSD at boot time.

Read more about in 'man mount' or 'man fstab'.  FreeBSD does not currently
support ext2fs (Linux filesystem) at this time.
