Think of it as a normal upgrade to a zope installation.  There is no harm caused by 
giving a new installation an old data.fs file.

Check out the Install/Upgrade HowTo for a bit of hand holding:

This walks you through exactly what files need to be where in order to transfer old 
data files.

Cheers,
Stephen
