You can't just move a BerkeleyDB-based repository from Linux to
Windows and be able to use it. You can do that with FSFS-based
repositories, but not BerkeleyDB-based repositories, and yours
appears to be BDB-based. As far as I know, to move across platforms
(or across CPU architectures, or across BerkeleyDB versions) you need
to svnadmin dump the repository on the old system and then svnadmin
load it onto the new system. So you really need to svnadmin dump on
the Fedora 5 machine. I realize your Fedora 5 machine is toast. Can
you put the repository on another Fedora 5 machine of the same CPU
architecture and BDB version and dump there? Or can you rebuild your
Fedora 5 machine to the point that you have BDB and Subversion
installed and can run the dump there?
