Please Albi, can you explain to me how to > mount the FreeBSD partition on my ext2 or 3 filesystems ? an example (with /dev/hda1) how to mount a FreeBSD-slice from Linux : mount -t ufs -o ufstype=44bsd /dev/hda1 /mnt/FreeBSD you should find out which slice in FreeBSD has the info you'd like to see in Linux maybe it's interesting for you to look at disk-encryption in either FreeBSD or Linux, there's a section about it (for 5.x ?) in the FreeBSD handbook : http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks-encrypting.html but of course you can start putting a password for the BIOS after disabling booting from cdrom and floppy (network etc.) HTH
