I recently tried using dd to transfer a binary image to floppy. It was the Linux root disk image, color.gz. Basically, dd works ok with non-gzipped files, but with files in gzip format, it chokes: root@lc186 floppies# dd if=color.gz of=/dev/rfd0 dd: /dev/rfd0: Invalid

It appears to have worked. I guess the output block size of 16k is key for floppies, then. The conv=osync does the padding. I use 18K (one cylinder) but any multiple of 9k should work well. No, the block size requirement for floppies is 512 bytes, as it is for almost any device.
