FreeBSD "FreeBSD 7.0 has already been released. If you are a real hacker, the best way to jump in and learn it is hacking together an introductory kernel module. In this article I'll implement a very basic module that prints a message when it is loaded, and another when it is unloaded. I'll also cover the mechanics of compiling our module using standard tools and rebuilding the stock FreeBSD kernel. Let's do it!"

A great book to learn more about this topic is:

Designing BSD Rootkits
An Introduction to Kernel Hacking
by Joseph Kong

April 2007, 142 pp.
ISBN-10 1-59327-142-5
ISBN-13 978-1-59327-142-8

the only problem is that this book is based on FreeBSD 6.x ;)
