Drive appeared after system disk changed to dynamic + software mir

[Guest]

I have a Windows 2000 Advanced server that I have converted the C:\ SYSTEM
partition to a Dynamic disk and mirrored the drive. Initially after doing
this the SYSTEM partition changed to F:\, but after another reboot changed
back to C:\ , but the F:\ drive stayed. I can open C:\ and it is marked as
SYSTEM - everything appears normal here. What's odd is I can also open F:\
and it shows the contents of the C:\, almost like it is a pointer. Does
anyone know why this happened, if it will hurt anything and possibly a safe
way to remove the F:\?

These articles may help. There is now a v2 of the rollup but WU won't
suggest it if v1 is installed.
