Actually we would probably have to add an additional screen to the installer. The user picks not only the disk but possibly a partition on the disk as well.
I expect that we would maybe add a "mirror" checkbox to the current disk screen and add an optional new "mirror" screen. Or alternatively we could forget the checkbox and always go through the mirror screen where selecting a disk would be optional. Frank
