I was getting the WMI exception you mention trying to make a new server instance under the "Server Administration" of mysql's "Workbench Central". I had been trying "Take Parameters from Existing Database Connection" and choosing my local DB when I got the exception.

In that first "Specify the Host Machine the Database Server is running on" screen, I needed to choose the first option, "localhost".

This let me create a connection to my local server through which I could import data that I had exported from another database. The export was made into a flat .sql file.

You might try simply exporting to a .sql file and then putting that file on a CD.
