Vinum configuration question.

Here's my situation. I have two machines. One running OpenBSD on a 60gig drive and one running FreeBSD on a 10gig drive with a second 60gig for storage. I want to take the 60 gig drive from the OpenBSD box and use it as a mirror to the 60 gig in the FreeBSD box. The catch is I want to creat
