(Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, cause I haven't done this much)  You
could build a kernel with the driver built in and supply that on the
machine serving the kernel image, and the netbook should be able to
download and use it as normal.

There are development accounts available on leaf.dragonflybsd.org, though
you won't be able to test the driver directly there.
