How to generate an image file from FD

I need to create an image file from the floppy disk...
I think "dd" is the command im looking for but i dont know how it works... :confused:
can anyone tell how to do that??

You are right. dd is the way to go.

dd if=/dev/your/path/to/floppy of=/path/to/somefile

The somefile will contain the image.
