That should work if you can keep the file structure intact. This means privileges, groups, owners and all that. I don't know exactly how to do that, but suspect that tar at least is capable of it because it is also used in cloning the internal flash to mmc. I hope somebody else can answer this.

Option 2 seems messier since I'd have stuff in two places but it certainly is easier. So I would create a directory.... how would i do this and then point to it?

Forget this. It was just me remembering things wrong. You can have your stuff in one place.
