I've successfully dd disks that are dying onto another one.  Or use cp.
Don't use cp, use cpio--cp will cause you to create copies in place of links (so you could end up with several copies of a single file on a disk). With GNU findutils and GNU cpio:

cd /mnt/baddisk
find . -print0 | cpio -dpmv0 /mnt/gooddisk

Note that you should do this from a boot/root floppy (i.e. so you're not copying the virtual filesystems, etc.). Also, make sure you remember all partitions on the disk.
