I have a stack of network cards that work great under linux but
have no BSD drivers... also working on a set of dual opteron
blades from Penguin Computing which run linux but the keyboard,
serial ports and network interface don't work with BSD.
Here's the details... http://galis.org/blade-penguincomputing/notes.html

So no, just because it runs Linux doesn't mean it runs bsd.

However the cflash/ide; 1Ghz fanless celeron; with 100mbps fxp0
on board and 1gbps wm0 + wm1 on the low profile pci card all work
great. wmX interfaces do not PXE boot but the fxp0 interface does.
