<floppydevice> is usually fd<number>, with fd0 being the first (and generally
only one) floppy, also it is generally useful to set the block size. The
complete command could then be:

dd if=<image filename> of=/dev/fd0 bs=512

and the command must be given with root privileges (as you are accessing
directly to the device)

..my 2 pence.
