Hello, To follow-up on my initial question, Iam happy to inform that I have bootable RAID-1 FreeBSD 5.3 i386 Release working using "gmirror" using excellent documentation provided on
http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/mirror/ Thankyou for the heads-up in the Errata about GEOM related changes. Using "gvinum" I got the system booted and working, but I just could'nt add second drive and create a mirror, may be its because the vinum port to GEOM is not complete yet.
