I have a number of problems with tar (build 17.1).
1) Trying to read or write from my floppy drive (eg
tar cvf /dev/fd0 *.pl) gives the following error
tar: Cannot open /dev/fd0: No such process
2) I often get the following message
setgrent called, and it's not done yet.
when creating a tar file.
Are there anyone who can tell me whats going on and how to
circumvent (1).
Thanks
Lars
