The same way that you get to Carnegie Hall.  Hard work and practice,
practice, practice.   :-)

That being said, the Linux Foundation does offer a virtual training
class for mere $2750 for a five day class.  The next session is April
23rd -- 27th.

Personally, I'd suggest reading the book, lookinig at the kernel
sources at other device drivers, and experimenting, but if you have a
bit over two and a half kilobucks burning a hole in your pocket, I've
met some of the folks who develop and teach the LF classes, and they
are good folk.

Cheers,
