Shortly, I'd suggest to use a whole backup of your home directory it's faster and you don't lose any data. Later, you can start removing stuff here and there or cleanup your configuration. About the 32bit/64bit issue. From what I have read around (mainly here: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/212521) you can migrate your MySQL db using "dumps" (I don't know what they are, but it seems feasible).
