Comments.Text: "as much data as possible"? Do an sql dump. if that seems unhelpful (I expect it is unhelpful) then perhaps you can expand on what you are wanting to achieve. Data migration is not easy. CiviCRM lets you export lots of different entities but won't cover everything. so perhaps flesh out what data you have that matters
