Hi list,

I installed Nexenta 1.0.1 test 4 on a machine with a ZFS root as  
mirrored drives.  Quite usefully, ZFS told me about a bunch of bad  
sectors on the drive (which I now see is why I was having problems  
with Linux on the machine earlier) so I removed the drive at c1t0d0,  
ZFS kept running just fine, I rebooted, setting the second drive to  
boot, and got:

   bad PBR sig

So... I'm guessing grub wasn't installed onto the second drive?  In  
this instance it doesn't matter - as a brand new install I replaced  
the drive and re-installed in a few minutes' time, but I'd like to  
know how to set things up so that I _can_ reboot if there's a disk  
failure.  I can pretty easily test this by swapping the drives in  
BIOS, I think.  And, of course, it would be lovely if the installer  
would do such a thing. :)

Thanks,
-Bill
