W File System: 1 member missing in logical device (original device ID: 50000)
W File System: Logical device 8005000: no spares found to perform hot replacement


So it appears that my original boot drive failed. So, should I try putting the spare drive in the top slot and adding the new drive in the bottom slot?

Or is a dd the way to go and how do I do this?

Thanks!!!!
Member "0" refers to the drive 1 = top ID 10000
Its easy to verify, If you remove it The snap will not come up. If it does try the oter one. When it boots with just 1 drive, install the ne drive and follow the procedure posted above. You must use either 10000 (top) or 10010 (bot)

50000 is what the mirror partition is called.

dd = digital dolly found on unix system Knoppix CD
it is similar to ghost.
