I think the easiest would be to simply copy the whole library exactly as it is and then run the database maintenance routines from Linux and check it. Linux cares about case, but Windows don't, that is something most likely the major problem when going from Windows to Linux. I think that the database check allows you to fix it. But I'm not sure.

If that doesn't work, then save everything to disk, one folder per book, with opf-files. And add to calibre.
