Is there a way to migrate svn without using svnadmin dump?

My linux box has unfortunately died. I can access the raw SVN repositories from a backup and I need to revive them on my Windows box (at least for the timebeing). Is there a way of migrating/importing these repositories, given that I can't run "svnadmin dump" on the linux box?

I'd suggest booting from a Linux live CD of the same distribution as your Linux server, or create a virtual machine with VMWare Player or VirtualBox and mount the filesystem, then you can do an svnadmin dump from there.

As it's no longer in use (no commits or checkouts), try copying the whole repo to your Windows box.
