I believe you are looking for the
partimage program. If you do not want to image the drives and just want to duplicate the packages on each machine then you could
dpkg --get-selections > selections.txt to get a list of packages then on the machine to upgrade the packages on
dpkg --set-selections < selections.txt to set the selections and
dselect update to update dselect's database and then
apt-get dselect-upgrade to upgrade the packages installed to the list that was set.
