1. Generate SQL script for your database in the MS SQL Server Enterprise
Manager
2. Modify generated SQL to be compatible with MySQL
3. Run the script on your MySQL server

Pretty easy if you aren't using any feature of MS SQL that MySQL doesn't
support (for example stored procedures)

Another way is to connect both the servers to Access using ODBC and just
copy the tables - it's the easiest way to do that but resulting MySQL tables
are quite screwed up.
