like Stefan said. you can use the scp command: man scp to find out how to use it. I would just copy the configuration files. using scp like:
scp -pr [email protected]:/etc/* /home/username/wrt54g/etc then you have a backup copy of your configuration files if they are stored in /etc. I'm not sure about copying the whole JFFS filesystem. if you checkout the trunk source files you can build the packages you choose through the menuconfig command, then you can modify the source packages to include your configuration files directly. Hope this helps.
