I actually did a migration from one server to another just this morning , and it was amazingly simple :)
In Windows , stop your mysql database (so no writing possible to it) , then simply copy the *.MYI files from your win32 system to your Suse system ( thinks it's in /var/lib/mysql/otrs , just do a locate *.MYI)
Also , if you are running ArticleFS as your Storage module (like I do) , make sure to copy the existing data from your article directory as well to the new system.
If you need your Sysconfig Data , just backup through the SysConfig web module.
Just to add , my migration was from linux to linux , but presumably it should work the same.
I really wouldn't just copy the .myi files, but use mysqldump on the old host and restore those dumps on the new host using mysqlrestore. It's really the safer way. Nils.
