I've been running gmirror on three different servers since January  
(everything mirrored, boots fine) and recovered from one crash. After  
crash I had to manually remove the problem drive from the mirror  
config and insert a new one but otherwise it's been a breeze.

here's a set of good instructions how to setup gmirror on system disk:
