dd is a cli tool that should be installed by default on your distro. You can even pipe it to gzip or bzip2 to create a compressed image. Many of the Linux disk image utilities are actually just a gui for dd and other tools. Check out the man page before using it, but here's an example:
Code:dd if=/dev/sda1 | bzip2 -9 > disk.img
