If the disc doesn't have additional copy protection schemes (ARccOS, RipGuard, ...), you can simply copy the VIDEO_TS directory to a hard drive. Or dump the whole disc image with "dd if=/dev/dvd of=image.iso". HandBrake handles both as DVD input.
If a copy protection scheme prevents this, you'll need to run some Windows-based DVD ripping tool with Wine.
