I'd just
dd(1) them from to a file, gzip them, and save the disk
images.
When I archived my collection of PC 5 1/4s a while back,
I choose to use .zip archives. Unless the disks have a
boot sector or are non-FAT, do you really need a disk image?
On the other hand, I can't help but think some crafty hacker
must've created a device driver for a PC that'll mount a
floppy image as if it were an actual floppy.
