tar xvMf /dev/fd0 causes Segmentation faults.

[H C Lai <eeshcl@ee.bath.ac.uk>]

Hi there,

I have Debian1.2 running kernel 2.0.27. The tar package version is
1.11.8-5.

I can create multipy floppy archive using 'tar cvMf /dev/fd0' but 
NOT retrieving it using  'tar xvMf /dev/fd0'.

I always get 'Segmentation faults and then core dumped' when I tried
the latter ??!!.

I think I can do 'tar tvMf /dev/fd0' as well ??

Any idea ???

Thanks

H.C.Lai
