make a copy of the directory /var/lib/mysql (that's where mysql puts his
files on my box, but I don't remember if it was a package installation
from cobalt or not. I think not. your directory location may vary)
and after you put the new box or whatever and install mysql, just remove
the /var/lib/mysql directory of the new installation, and place your
backup instead of it.
