Cloning a debian system



My office machine will be replaced next month. I'd like to make the new
machine be pretty much like the old one. Given that I can't actually move
the primary hard drive over, what's the best way to get the package list
straight? Should I back up all of /etc, do a basic net install, then do an
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade?

Thanks-
Andy
