Unfortunately, it only gets you so far. What if you want to spread
your data across several physical disks (without hardware/software
RAID)? Or maybe put indexes on one disk and data on another? Either
of those are currently impossible (with MyISAM) unless you use
symlinks.
But yes, if you want to move EVERYTHING, just tell MySQL that you have
a different datadir and be done with it. :-)
