i am trying to reorganize my filesystem so i can test out RAIDframe.

1. how do i move a _directory_ from one filesystem to another and keep all 
the same owner, permissions? 'cp -R' seems really slow.

2. how do i move an entire filesystem to another and keep owner and 
permission the same? (maybe same as #1? or maybe do some kind of image 
copy?) filesystem aren't necessarily the same size (probably moving to a 
bigger filesystem).
