Here are the results of the methods that were suggested for producing a CD image. They all seem to fail at the same place because the resulting file is the same size.
# dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/cd1.iso dd: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error 1440+0 records in 1440+0 records out
# dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/cd2.iso bs=2k dd: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error 360+0 records in 360+0 records out
# cp /dev/cdrom /tmp/cd3.iso cp: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error
# ls -l /tmp/cd* -rw------- 1 root root 737280 Sep 17 14:09 /tmp/cd1.iso -rw------- 1 root root 737280 Sep 17 14:10 /tmp/cd2.iso -rw------- 1 root root 737280 Sep 17 14:11 /tmp/cd3.iso
