mysqldump, then mysql.

Test, test, test.

Will you be changing character sets?

A moderately likely problem you will encounter: new keywords. A simple workaround: Go into the source and use backticks around column/table names that are now reserved words:
WHERE `when` > blah
(WHEN is a new keyword -- you might have a column with that name).

Are you going from Windows to Windows? Then you are unlikely to stumble over Windows ignoring case, while Unix is case-sensitive.
