Here is all that I know and I don't know a lot :-( 
FreeBSD has linux-binaries emulator in kernel-level (gurus, am I right ?
) and seems to run a lot of linux binaries (I heared about Doom
and Wabi ) . Probably it exists also in NET-BSD .
I know, that before some time Sela Group has some Free-BSD disks .
Maybe NET-BSD also ?
Their site www.sela.co.il:8080 .
