Duplicating a F7 installation.

Hi,

I have to install some machines with F7 and then make several modification
to it (so the kickstart would help only partially) and I wondered if it is possible to duplicate the installation copying the HD.

If the machine, HD and partitioning are the same can I copy the data with tar
or dd or whatever and have it in working order? What about the MBR, can it be copied? What about if I install GRUB on the first partition?

Has anyone tried to do something similar?

Thanks,
GianPiero
