sfdisk and rsync or dump/xfsdump.
You could probably script it by looking at /etc/fstab or
/proc/partitions or something, although disks with different geometries
will catch you. If they're IDE, you run into situations where a lot of
systems, even with identical disks, can ID the geometry differently
depending on what controller they're plugged into and how the BIOS
settings are configured.
