I have recently installed the linux slakware on my 486 pc.
I have a problem with the tar compression program.  It seems to execute okay 
if I just type tar at the prompt as below.

jess:/home/steve# tar
tar: you must specify exactly one of the r, c, t, x, or d options

For more information, type ``tar --help''.

Although when I try to decompress a file as below I get an error.

jess:/home/steve# tar -x filename.tar
tar: can't open /dev/nst0 : No such device

This device file "nst0" does exist in the /dev directory. It has read and 
write permission and I even tried giving it execute permission but this 
didn't help.

If anyone knows what the problem is would you please be able to email me the 
answer.

Thanks in advance.
