just to clarify, the point is for the amiga to only see a normal ide hd, bootable without any special drivers.
The pc end could be a variety of connections I guess, any that is able to supply the required IDE signals.

Thomas mentions SCSI, thats very interesting. Anyone tried this and is it bootable from rom? Ie linux pc with scsi card<------>scsi card attached to amiga.


I have a SCSI chain which consists of:

PowerMac <----> SCSI Disks <----> Sampler

The devices can both use the SCSI disks, and the Mac can control the Sampler, so in theory your idea is technically possible.  All you'd need would be the software.
