The server uses a CF card in place of a hard disk. The server oddly enough is Windows 98 SE based. I have a CentOS 7 box with a USB CF card reader.
I am trying to image the CF card and write the image to a second CF card. Kind of a, make a backup to experiment with scenario and use the backup.

This my CentOS 7 box doesn't work:

$ sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=win98seQSP2predrivers.img bs=1M count=1000 status=progress

The file created cannot be mounted. If you write it to another CF card, you get garbage.
