    yes and no, yes if you swap the cable position, and if the BIOS support
    such configurations, which some clones did, as my DEC PC do, IIRC.

    There is another way using some sort of a boot manager but need to read
    from A: first <-- not what you re asking.

    No, not IBM, they Hard Coded and Wired, now if someone can frack the
    BIOS that is a different story.

    AFAIK
