As long as the Linux variant can use HFS+. (Which I believe Yellow Dog 
can.)

OS X can use a BSD UFS partition, but not the standard Linux partitions 
or file systems. However, you do loose functionality (like complete 
loss of "classic" mode) and, as I understand it, Apple does not Qualify 
UFS, so things will work as long as Darwin has no problems with 
whatever is happening.
