directory and untar the files

Hello,
I have just install gnuwin32/b18 version on my NT , it is great !
but i have a problem to access raw floppy (with tar or dd)
when typing : tar tvf /dev/fd0
i can see the floppy led flashing but i get :
tar: Cannot open /dev/fd0: No such file or directory
the mount command give :
\\.\tape1: /dev/st1 native no-mixed,text!=binary
\\.\tape0: /dev/st0 native no-mixed,text!=binary
\\.\b: /dev/fd1 native no-mixed,text!=binary
\\.\a: /dev/fd0 native no-mixed,text!=binary
c: / native no-mixed,text!=binary
is there something else to configure to make this working ?
