As queried by Ian, the new disk being attached must be at least as big
as the original root pool disk. It can be bigger, but the difference
will not be used in the mirroring.

hi.
i am trying to attach a mirror disk to my root pool. if the two disk
are the same size.. it all works fine, but if the two disks are with
different size (8GB and 7.5GB) i get a "I/O error" on the attach
command.
can anybody tell me what am i doing wrong?
Trying to mirror a larger disk with a smaller one?
Recent builds can cope with a small difference to allow for variations
between models of the same nominal size, but not 500MB.
