[conspire] disk imaging programs

Can anybody point me in the right direction:
I have been wrestling with a couple Linux-originated disk cloning apps,
PartImage and CloneIt. They both have procedures to create bootable images
but I can't seem to make them work using rawrite.
I've had difficulty downloading the files as well. Sometimes wget just
stops after about 20k is downloaded.
PartImage www.partimage.org disk images
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6212&release_id=78032
CloneIt http://www.ferzkopp.net/Software/CloneIt/CloneIt.html
This CloneIt looks pretty neat. So why do his disk image files not make a
readable floppy? I sucessfully (I think) downloaded the files, gunziped
them, and wrote them to floppy.
I should admit that being a Linux newbie, much of this has been done under
Windows. But rawrite is for Windows, and a raw floppy image is the same
regardless, right? My Debian boot floppies come up just fine on my Windows
machine.
If anybody can recommend something else to try, or their favorite cloning
tool, that would be great. Maybe I just need to go buy Ghost.
TIA, -Sean.
