Why not go one better? Wouldn't it be possible to have a loader on a 3.5"
disk to start up the machine, establish an AppleTalk link with the Mac,
then load the rest of GS/OS from the remote hard drive? A bit unorthodox,
perhaps, but this is the Apple ][ world...it CAN be done, even if nobody
has figured out how just yet ;-)
