Before coming up on Warp (version 3), I was using Central Point Backup (DOS 
version 7.1) to backup my 850 meg drive to a SyQuest EZ135 (2 disks).
I now find out that OS/2 does not support removeable drives.  :-(
Since I do not really want to invest in another backup medium, I will have to 
Dual Boot to DOS and do the backup there.
EABackup appears to be the program to use to backup the EA DATA.SF file. I 
think CPBackup 7.1 will work, but would like to know if anyone knows for 
re.
If you are backing up from DOS to a removeable drive, what
program are you using?
I guess I should also ask about using the PCTools 7.1 defragger, COMPRESS.  
Is anyone using this from a DOS Dual Boot session?
Any comments would be appreciated.
Jon
