This is probably an unusual configuration but it would be possible with iSCSI.  If you
shared the /dev/sda device from the first machine using the iscsi-target tools then you
could mount it from the second machine using iscsi-initiator.  You could then use oc2fs to
mount it.

You normally want the storage to be on a SAN and have equal access from both systems.

The easier solution would be to just export it from the first system with nfs then mount
it from the second machine.
