Hi,
I am doing a forensic examination of a floppy disk.

I used the dd utility to make a bit for bit copy of the disk and then perform an md5 hash on the resulting image.

The problem I have is getting a single md5 hash value for the original floppy disk.Any tool I've used so far will only work on a single file.

Running the tools in XP DOS environment.

Any help would be appreciated

use rather dcfldd (windows binary) instead of dd.
winhex, x-ways forensics or the ftk imager could also generate a md5 hash value "on the fly".
