Lost Mirror, have backup

I need some help. I can not seem to recover my server.

I have a mirrored array of my root disk, c0d0. I was playing with ZFS and I lost the array some how.

I have a backup of the full disk taken with TAR.

Whenever I try and restore to disk from single user booting with CD I get write errors. I can not find a resoure on google.

Any ideas will help. I would like to restore the system as it was if possible.

Thanks
