Well, you do not say what version of GroupWise you plan to put on your OES2
SP1 Linux server - because GroupWise 6.0 will not work! In fact, of course,
there is no GW6.0 for Linux. You will need to go at least with GW7, but GW8
is your best bet.

And yes, you technically CAN leave the data on the current NSS volumes and
migrate it over, but it isn't the best possibility because there are many
NSS settings from your NetWare volume that aren't as efficient on Linux.

While you might very well want an NSS volume on Linux for GW, we really
recommend that you create a brand new NSS volume, using settings that are
more appropriate for the Linux NSS and move the data over.
