In short: You can write in D everything you can in C. And there
is good place called D.Learn for starters.
Anyway, with all sympathy I have, please use google for it.
E.g
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2222763/how-should-i-get-started-on-writing-device-drivers
"Writing a device driver can be pretty simple, or it can be
almost arbitrarily complicated. For instance, I've been involved
in a project where it took six of us almost three years to solve
ONE bug in a device driver. "
I do writing/debugging drivers on my daily basis. Rewarding, fun,
frustrating... So go for it. D has additional bonus as good
looking syntax/modules etc.
BTW. Don't use Windows and Linux in the same sentence ;) Drivers
are platform specific if you pass register map step.
Please share what you achieved. Wringing drivers is for the elite
;)
