Checking FreeBSD and NetBSD is always worth doing but I would not state
FreeBSD is easier. For the drivers I have ported I found NetBSD better
to port as the FreeBSD driver contained far too much PC and ISA bus
specific code while the NetBSD had a nice layering for difference bus
type, ie VME, PCI, ISA.
