I'm not sure if you'll be able to boot from an external drive or not. I
don't mean to be a pessimist but I think you can only boot from a built-in
drive. I just looked at the BASIC 5.1 Installation Manual and it doesn't
say but when I look at the list of BIN driver files I see HP-IB, DISK ...
... i've done that. I had a 9122 connected to a HP9836 and i could boot from
the 9122 without any problems. If i remember correctly, you have to specify
a specific HP-IB address for the 9122 (i found that in one of the manuals,
unfortunately i don't have that at hand at the moment ...)
