Changing data directory

How to change data directory for all databeses including system ones
(master, temdb etc.)
Can't do it by update sysfiles because (I can't figure why) this object
cannot be modified -
Regards
Piotr
Inidivisual database names can be changed via detaching and attaching,
chaging the path of the system databases needs a registry hack for that,
because the service will start them.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\ MSSQLServer\Parameters
