is the variable "altbootpath" being set? you have to remove the failed disk and boot from the remaing disk. after boot you have to "hotplug" the new disk and create the mirror new. if all this has been done and the system isn't booting, you've maybe missed to use "installgrub" on the remaining disk? if so, you can boot from cd/dvd and use the "installgrub" command now...

hth,
