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.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
