Are there any problens with this do you think?

This, I think rather old article, recommends to install FreeBSD
slice after Linux extended partition:

http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux+FreeBSD-2.html

It may not be an issue for Linux itself, but IIRC some (most? all?)

Not GRUB, it couldn't care less where the kernel is.

of the Linux loaders need to have the Linux kernel located within
the first 1K cylinders or some such, because those loaders use BIOS
services to read in the kernel.
