This HOWTO really saved me. The only notes I have to add is concerning the mysql db's.
The mysql db's are kept in: /var/lib/mysql
Stop the mysql service:
service mysqld stop
Change directories to the old mysql:
cd /mnt/old/var/lib/mysql/
Copy the mysql db's to the new install:
cp -R ./mysql /var/lib/
Change directories to the new mysql:
cd /var/lib/
Change the ownership on the new install mysql directory:
chown -R mysql:mysql ./mysql
Restart the mysqld service:
service mysqld start
