We just purchased version 2.0 of FreeBSD UNIX to use in a UNIX design class. One of the assignments in this class is to write a Device Driver, which will be a SCSI controller. Can someone tell me if install the device driver in the kernel in FreeBSD 2.0 without having to recompile the kernel? I know that you don't need to do that in Solaris.
