- Subject: How to read TAR diskette on Windows98/Me
To read a tar diskette on WindowsNT/XP/2000 the
command "tar tvf /dev/fd0" works fine.
It doesn't work on Windows98 or WindowsMe.
What do you need to do to read a tar disk on those systems?
I guess any program that would read a raw diskette
and copy it to a file would do. Any suggestions on
how to do this?
How about Windows API code to read from a raw diskette?
