Default duplicate Linux installation

Hi,

For a classroom setup, I am asked to install multiple copies of Linux
(Fedora Core 3) on the same machines in a classroom. Is there a (easy)
way to duplicate one system to a new partition, without having to
(re)install the complete system? Can I just duplicate the root partition
and modify /etc/fstab of the copied system accordingly? Will there be
network issues (we use dhcp on our network, so I don't think that will
be a problem). Anything else to take into account?

In short:
step 1. install 1 linux system
step 2. duplicate installed linux system on same machine
==> How do i go about this?

tnx,
E.T.
