I'm interested in hacking some on the kernel, maybe work on a driver.
What's the recommended way to set up a single machine for this?

I'm thinking along the lines of a set of partitions for running
2.1.5-RELEASE that I would use for development, and a single partition
with -current or maybe -SNAP that I would use for testing.

So I would build from the 2.1.5 system into the -current partition, and
then reboot to the -current partition to test.  Does this sound
workable?
