Setting up Subversion of a set of interrelated projects

We recently switched over to Subversion from CVS and we are about to do the first SW release and tagging the whole directory seems like overkill.
I just want to see if anyone has set up subversion fo a similar environment.
We have 4 major directories - sw, hw, common, docs. From this we build device drivers, runtime libraries, an SDK, a bunch of tools, a couple of simulators and some logic files. We also have 3 generations of products, so, the whole kit and kaboodle is large.
In the good old CVS days, we could checkout individual files. Now we check out directories, but that is not too bad. So, to build the runtime library, we checkout specific directories.
Checkout(CHECKOUTTAG, BUILDREV, 'sw/build', False)
Using pysvn, we have a tool that walks a tree and finds these roots and does updates.
The problem is that I cannot figure out how to tag it. If I tag one of the roots, it does not preserve any hierarchy. So, I just tag the whole repository.
