Not really. The ufs support of Linux needs a bit of patching to support all the block/fragment sizes that FreeBSD can use. I had to patch the kernel with the diff listed here: http://lists.hellug.gr/pipermail/linux-greek-users/2004-November/101772.html to force the Linux kernel to accept perfectly valid UFS1 partitions.
