Forgive my stupidity if this won't work exactly, but how about simply
playing with the directory entry so that it appears in a different
location? That way, you don't have to worry about not having enough
space to copy and delete...

Of course, if you wanna move between disks, you're gonna have to move
and copy.... but you already knew *that*. :-)
