UDF.IFS is the support IFS for CD-RW and DVD-RW (or DVD+RW) drives and disks
ONLY !  There is no support for -R.

CDFS.IFS is the support to read CDs and DVDs, so it probably doesn't matter
what sequence they are in config.sys however in my case CDFS comes
imediately after UDF.IFS i.e.

IFS=C:\OS2\BOOT\UDF.IFS /V
IFS=C:\OS2\BOOT\CDFS.IFS /Q /W

Once loaded UDF.IFS (make sure you have the latest version) allows you to
utilise your CD-RW or DVD-RW drive and disk as if it is a
"normal" harddisk,
only removable and a lot slower.
