I just tried that with a Disk Tools.img, and no it doesn't work.
If you had a real floppy, you could dd it to a file then dd would
work to copy it to another floppy.
Is your 7.1 system so broken it won't boot even with the shift
key held down? You don't need any extensions to use Disk Copy.
If it is broken, I could send you a 7.1 Disk Tools dd image which you
could use dd to burn. Then you could boot with that and make copies of
the other floppies.
