dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/tmp/myfile does the work, without specifying size.
I also, in the past, copied a disk from a machine A to another disk
in a machine B, using ethernet connection and two muLinux:
machine A:
# dd if=/dev/hda1 | nc -l -p 5555
machine B:
# nc A-IP-ADDRESS 5555 > /dev/hda2
You see, I use netcat "nc" listening to TCP port 5555. In this
way I transfered Win98 via network.
