[Typo3-debian] Migrating typo3-installations from non-debian-machine to debian-machine?

[Hanno 'Rince' Wagner]

Hi,

I haev a website created with typo3 running on Linux, but a
non-debian-linux with a handmade-installation of Typo3. Since I have
to upgrade/recreate that machine anyway (new hardware, new admins),
I already decided to go to Debian and use the Debian-Package of
typo3.

Now my problem: I know that nearly everything of Typo3 is within the
database. But how can I "migrate" my old website to the new machine?
Wenn I try the typo3-installation-package and have put the old site
already in the MySQL-Database, the installation suggests not to use
the "old" installation-database since it will overwrite all relevant
table.

So what is the best way to migrate my website?

Ciao, Hanno
