run the following command:

replace /dev/cdrom with the path to your cd-rom device if it doesn't
work. (i use /dev/hdc)

Hi,
I wanted to get the iso image file of a CD in linux. How
should I do this ? Please suggest any rpm if required.

Especially for copying ISO images, add "bs=10240" to the other dd
parameters. I think dd goes sector by sector (bs=512) otherwise. You
can try different values to see if there is any appreciable difference
on your system. The bs parameter allows standard size abbreviations so
the above could have been written bs=10K.
