After some conflicting information from NovaStor about potential OS/2
CD-R/W support, I inquired further and received the following letter
from NovaStor Technical Support:

  Louis,

  We have thoroughly researched the possibility of adding support for
  CD-R/W drives under the OS/2 Warp operating system. Attempting to
  use these drives with the current version of the NovaDisk
  application provided unstable and faulty results, being unable to
  provide a reliable backup or restore procedure. Consequently, we
  have decided to discontinue any further development of a backup
  program for the OS/2 platform.

  We apologize for any inconvenience that this might cause.

  Please note that we are still fully expecting to support the OS/2
  Warp operating system with our future release of InstantRecovery.
  This software will allow you to perform a disaster recovery backup
  to CD-R/W media and allow the system to be recovered in case of a
  critical failure from a floppy diskette or bootable CD-R/W.

  We invite you to visit our beta forum to download and test this new
  software. The beta forum can be reached on our Internet site on the
  Technical Support pages. Provide the required information  and be
  sure to add in the comment field "Authorized by CK" (non-authorized
  request forms will be declined). After downloading the beta
  version, please evaluate the software and return your comments or
  questions via email. We will be glad to hear from you and your
  input to make the software even better.
