tar from/to floppy disk

[Michael Reinelt]

I'm trying to get tar to read/write from floppy disks. (It's the only
NT tar which _should_ work with floppies).
As I said, it only should. With NT4 Server, the floppy starts up, and
after a few seconds, I get the following:

   tar: Cannot open /dev/fd0: Not super-user

(Win95 refuses to know about /dev/fd0.)

Already working as administrator, I tried to become super-user :-)
I created /etc/passwd, and changed the UID of administrator to 0. I
added a new user "root", again with UID 0. Doesn't help.

Any hints?

bye, Michael
