Erick:
Do not try to copy the database files themselves. Instead use mysqldump to
dump the structure and contents to text files, which you can easily copy
across the network from your Windoze to Linux.
My advice is to create an empty database on the Linux machine, and set your
permissions using GRANT. Then import the text file(s) into the new Linux
database.
