You created the mirror after the GPT, which means you destroyed
the GPT backup header. gmirror uses the last sector on the disk
for metadata and that by itself is a cause for various problems.
It's better to use gmirror per partition.
#echo 'geom_mirror_load="YES"' >> /boot/loader.conf
Is /boot a symlink for /efi/boot?
GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0 destroyed.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is normal.
And when the system is rebooted, there is no /dev/mirror anymore.
You could run into a race condition between GPT and gmirror and
GPT winning (again the result of gmirror using the last sector
on a disk for metadata).
Alternatively, make sure gmirror got loaded at boot.
