Mm. There is that. Though it's easy enough to download the port & files 
onto a thumb drive or floppy beforehand and pop the driver on after the 
install.

It just adds a pre-step to updating the kernel  (download & install the 
latest port for the driver... do the build/installkernel, then go back 
and de/reinstall the port--I'm sure there's a better way of doing it, 
but that's what I've been doing.)

Best,
