This could be really easy, or really difficult depending on your job types. If
your jobs are Freestyle jobs using "Execute batch script" then that's
definitely not going to convert cleanly since Linux doesn't have batch scripts.
If you're using a plugin which invokes a build tool, e.g. the Gradle plugin,
then that should make those things easier.
I would suggest looking out for anything that does specific path handling
behavior, since Linux and Windows path strings are going to be different :(
Unfortunately I cannot really help you from experience, as I've always stuck to
Linux or FreeBSD for running Jenkins.
