My professor plans to use FreeBSD for teaching purpose. We will allow
students to build their kernel but do not want to give them root password.
So it's better to find a way to let students build kernel under their own
account, save the kernel on a floppy and then boot from the floppy.  

I am familiar with normal kernel build process.  But have not done the
above before.  I hope someone can give me some suggestions and I will try
them out.

Thanks a lot.
