I think this may be the best solution: http://www.novell.com/communities/node/4146/netware-server-migration-physical-virtual-p2v-using-vmware
Netware 6.x can run on many servers, in principle you only need drivers for the HD controller and network card. Netware 6.5 (which is greatly preferred over 6.0) will almost for sure have drivers for these, but the systemax site doesn't mention which RAID controller or NIC is implemented, so it is impossible to make a definitive conclusion.
Can you try to find out what controller is in this server?
What i can see from the site is that Systemax is a box pusher. You won't get much support from them. Maybe you
should go with another vendor...
(the server details page is on
http://www.productshippingcenter.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5328466&Sku=SYX-4009
and the support link points to
http://www.supportforyourpc.com/ which is a generic support site.

My experience putting NetWare on a Systemax box is "buyer beware". Most Systemax "servers" are really just PC grade hardware with lots of memory and a big case/power supply. NetWare will run on it, with a few additions. The RAID controller is software RAID in the BIOS, and has limited performance and OS support. You are better off buying a 3rd party hardware RAID controller (such as 3Ware). If the included network adapter is based on the Intel chipset, NetWare will probably use it. However, it is more likely based on the RealTek chipset, and driver support will be hit or miss.
I'd echo all of the above:
NW on "white box" was fine in the "good old days" of 3.x etc but by the time we got to 6.x (which is technically still the old days I guess) then it was becoming a lot more fussy about the hardware - as "name brand" kit has got to a point that its arguable as to why anyone wouldnt go down this route now.
It will "probably" work but I'd be wanting some branded hardware to be sure that weird glitches didnt come back to bite me in months to come
