Hello. The bbb supports the usb gadget driver that will provide access to the local filesystems (emmc etc) via the mini-usb-b port. I'd imagine you could modify this configuration to mount, as read-only, your eventual target disk, which is plugged into the host-a usb port. So it seems like this could be doable. I'd wonder what kind of performance you might get.
