Just copy the disks.
cp -ax / /mnt/
i think its ax anyhow. i should be more certain considering how many times
i have done this, you will need to copy partition by partition, eg if you
have /home on a different partition you will have to make a seperate
partition on the second drive and mount

I guess you want to use dpkg --get-selections and dpkg --set-selections
To get the same packages installed on the other do:

copy the file from thatmachine to the new one
dpkg --set-selections < file (on the new one)
