Does anyone have any recommendations on
software (preferably free) for
archiving old DOS floppies? What I'd like to do is to be able to make disk
images of all (okay, maybe just 'many') of the old DOS floppies I have so
that if they disks get trashed or the bits fall off I can remake 'em. I'm
assuming I'd probably be making these archives from a Windoze box although
DOS or even FreeBSD or Linux is a possibility.
I'd just dd(1) them from to a file, gzip them, and save the disk
images.
