Should be, but many aren't because the installation kernels are compiled 
for Pentium or later processors.

(Spent time doing such an install - put the hard drive in a "modern" 
computer for the install, then moved it back to the 386)

Oh, and on the security front, NetWare pre-4.x.  IIRC, not one security 
patch ever needed to be issued, and it was very widespread back then (2.x 
and 3.x days).
