OK Paul, what I just tried is, using FC5 with KDE,

1) Put a data CD in the drive.
2) When Fedora asks what to do, just click OK to let it mount the CD and open
it in a window.
3) Look to see what it mounts it as. Mine said media:/hda (because my hard
drive is SATA the CD gets hda)
4) Close the window and right-click Unmount on the icon
5) dd if=/dev/hda of=/path/to/my/file.iso replacing hda with whatever yours
mounted as.
6) I've got a 627MB file on my hard drive.
7) Hope that helps.
8) Time for bed!

Thanks again, Dave. Your method does not work here (FC5 and KDE too).
In truth, audio CDs do not correspond to a filesystem. Meanwhile, I
found the following solution:

cdrdao copy --device /dev/dvd

which works fine with audio or data CDs.
