System Image

[Arthur Johnson]

I assume your not talking about an exact duplicate, you just want the same
software correct?

In which case, I've done this on Debian before.  Run the following command
on the current machine:

# dpkg --get-selections > packages.list.txt

copy packages.list.txt to the new machine, and run:

# cat packages.list.txt | dpkg --set-selections
# dselect install

The last command I'm not sure about.  dselect doesn't seem to be present on
Ubuntu without apt-get install dselect.  You might be able to get away with
substituting "apt-get -f install" instead.
