The System folder is installed as part of the operating system at the top level of the hard disc. If you have more than one hard disc attached to the Mac hold down the Option (alt) key when the Mac starts up - this will open the Start Up Manager which enables you to switch the start up to another disc with a system folder. If you only have the one disc and the Mac is not finding the System folder you will need to reinstall the operating system from the installation discs.
