I suspect that HPDrive:

posted 4.0 version to emulate system boot drives for my HP 1000, 3000, and
64000 systems.
I've seen that project but I don't have the HPIB hardware for a PC to support it.
The prices for HPIB cards on eBay are much too expensive. I almost jumped on a couple
under $50 ones once, but fortunately I checked that site and saw that the chipset of the
"cheap" cards was incompatible and saved myself a lot of disappointment.
