Supported operating systems
The following table gives an overview of the supported operating
systems. The specified releases have been used for developing and
testing the current dvdisaster version. Typically, slightly older
and newer OS versions will also work.

1)FreeBSD: using ATAPI drives requires loading the atapicam kernel module -- see INSTALL doc
2)Due to unresolved problems with the build system. However 64bit
support currently provides no significant improvements over the 32bit version.
3)Later Versions up to Windows 7 have been reported to work.
Windows 2000 SP3 and earlier versions are not supported.
4)Support for multicore processors varies. On some editions using additional
cores for dvdisaster does not result in more performance.
