You can move the disk from B to A, use a Samba or NFS share, or even go
for the 'ghetto ghost' method of using netcat (search the TCLUG archives

Grub is mostly self healing, you'll want to chack your grub settings
before attempting a boot.  Also, you may get grub geometry errors, which
basically means a rebuild of grub.  Just make sure box B boots before
cutting it over :-)
