First off - thanks a bunch, now I don't need to reboot every time I forgot to 
copy some files to Linux. 
Tested and works here: ad0: 57241MB <WDC WD600JB-00CRA1>;
ad0s2 - current -CURRENT (everything in UFS2);
ad0s5 - Mandrake 9.2 + kernel 2.6.2 + p{1,2}.txt

There is a file though (emovix distro in ports/distfiles) which Linux gives an 
input/output error on. More precisely, it gives me 
"attempt to access beyond end of device
Buffer I/O error on device hde10, logical block ..." (several blocks).
Under FreeBSD - no errors on this file so it doesn't seem like HD problem.
