How do you recover an SVN repository?

The computer containing a repository had a motherboard crash. We replaced the computer and the hard drive was intact so we have all of the SVN data.

How do you re-enable the repository and not lose the history, versioning, etc.?

Any SVN-repository physically is just a part of ordinary FS-tree with files and folders, which contain all data in it.

If you know location of repositories on drive, you can copy repository(ies) to the new location as any other objects on HDD. You'll have to add|configure "access layer" for repos later, but it's another story
