What special steps do I need to take if I am moving from a PHP4/mysql 4.1 installation to a PHP5/mysql 5 installation?

Backup the database and move the files to a backup directory, make a new directory for the PHP 5 files, and you should be set.

Backup the database. If the database server gets updated 'in place', you shouldn't have to do anything. If the server will be a new one, simply load the backup into it — there are no differences between MySQL 4.1 and MySQL 5.0 database schemas in CiviCRM.
