What does "pls" mean?

Do you mean: you'd like a separate slice with SunOS UFS filesystem, to move 
data to and fro Solaris <---> FreeBSD, or do you mean laying down a FreeBSD UFS 
FileSystem, on a FreeBSD slice you created?

If you want the former:

su -
newfs -v -b 8192 -m 0 -o space /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p2

if you want the latter, SunOS does not support the FreeBSD's revision of the 
UFS FileSystem.

However, from what I've read, ZFS support is now in FreeBSD, so why not just 
use ZFS to move the data between the two?
