I have a directory structure like this

I'm trying to move some (but not all) subdirectories of /home to /newhome, using tar.
Are /home and /newhome on different filesystems? What wrong with a

Yes, /home and /newhome are on different filesystems. I was afraid that by using mv I'd lose some permissions, but now, after reading man mv, it seems I shouldn't be. Thanks for the tip.
