System: NetBSD hiro.xon.net 1.4.2 NetBSD 1.4.2 (HIRO) #3: Fri Apr 7 01:30:48 CEST 2000 wiz@hiro.xon.net:/archive/cvs/1.4.x/sys-bktr-test/arch/i386/compile/HIRO i386

>Description:
Moving a directory from e.g. ffs to msdosfs produces copies the
directory and its contents alright, but then doesn't delete the
original directory.

This is the inverse to bin/8439 (moving from a msdosfs also doesn't
work).
>How-To-Repeat:
mkdir testdir
vi testdir/testfile
 (enter some data)
mount /some/dos/device /disk/win98
mv testdir /disk/win98/
produces the following warnings and error:

mv: chown: /disk/win98//testdir/testfile: Invalid argument
mv: chown: /disk/win98//testdir: Invalid argument
mv: /bin/cp: terminated with 1 (non-zero) status: No such file or directory

Copying works (diff -r testdir /disk/win98/testdir is silent), but the
source directory and its contents are not removed.
>Fix:
Don't know.
