so far seems both pretty same except file system management.
this fair question, there differences, although may not substantial differences regard needs
freebsd , linux have different schedulers. impacts process management, particularly regards multicore scenarios. differences cannot explained in scope of answer. freebsd time differed substantially in kernel threading model closer linux.
freebsd , linux have different default filesystems, although both support multiple filesystems , there cross-os support. on linux, find distros default ext4. freebsd supports both ufs , zfs.
many of other differences in userland. freebsd encourages building source, including kernel. linux distros default binary packaging. also, in terms of systems-administration, there can significant differences simple things arguments basic userland tools take
licensing matters. there desire in bsd-derived systems minimize amount of code not have bsd-friendly license, since assumed users of these systems have freedom pursue commercial interests closed codebases.
