Q: I need to transfer my OS from iMac with firewire to Mac mini with thunderbolt. Don't know what to do.

Hello i have a mid 2010 iMac, Core i3, 3.2 GHz, 8 GB memory and El Capitan with a firewire 800 port  that is going bad. I just bought a refurbished Mac mini late 2014 from apple, Core i5, 2.6 GHz with 8GB memory with 2 thunderbolt ports (But the OS was not specified, I'm guessing 10.10 Yosemite if Apple puts original OS's on refurbished units) I want to use migration assistant to transfer everything from the iMac with the firewire to the Mac mini with the thunderbolt.  Can i use Apples thunderbolt to firewire adapter to do this? If not, what can i do? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
