Most of the differences lie in administration as well as the technical
background.

The initialisation of programs and daemons are using different mechanisms
on SysV and BSD.

Some Signals are defined differently or there are more defined on one
platform than the other.

The best way to see differences though is to compare the two by actually
using them. Linux is more SysV orientated while FreeBSD is ehm, well, BSD ;)
