I don't think a straight copy from WinSCP would work, (at least on a Windows machine) because it would not store all the file permissions. When you went to copy back, I think your permissions would be wrong (like executables would not be executable, etc...)

I guess you could set all the files to 0755 ??? or all permissions ....

I guess you could tar the entire device and copy over the tar, but you would need a lot of free space.

OR am I missing something. Can you tar to a remote location, can you map a share on the iPhone to a remote machine? A Windows machine?
