I'm not sure if I can parse this.  If you mean "will a Linux device
driver book help me write a FreeBSD driver", the answer is "probably
not".  Linux drivers are very different from UNIX drivers.  A UNIX
driver book will help a lot more, but even then, FreeBSD has changed a
lot in the last few years.
