Could you clarify this a bit?  My copy of the ULTRIX 4.0 Software Product
Description says:

"The ULTRIX Operating System is compatible with other software
system implementations which include:

4th Berkeley Software Distribution (4BSD), Version 4.2 and Version 4.3:

--- File system formats are interchangeable provided disk
    partitions are compatible."
