If you just want to try FreeBSD without installing on your HD yet: http://www.freesbie.org/ It's kind of like a FreeBSD equivalent of Knoppix. Otherwise, it's pretty easy to install FreeBSD on a spare partition and have your system dual boot with Linux. See the handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html for the basics, and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/multi-os/index.html for more details.
