Well theres not much good floppy image software I know about for Linux. And I haven't had much luck through wine applications.
The only way I've done it before is using the command dd
man dd for info.
EX. If you want to create an image of files on a floppy > dd if=/dev/fd0 of=floppy.image

Hope that helps.
