After I set up mirror for SCSI, it boot up ok and I could
see mirror setting in disk management. I unplugged one
SCSI and it still boot ok with broken mirror. I unplugged
the other then it won't boot.

Now even thought I plugged in both, there is an error
message "couldn't open boot partition to check the
signature".

Anyone please help!

If you check the MS Knowledge Base then you will find that
you need a Win2000 boot diskette to boot from the second
half of a mirror. Here is how you can make one:
- Format a floppy disk under Win2000.
- Copy these files from the \i386 folder of your Win2000 CD
to A:\
ntldr
ntdetect.com
- Type this command from the Command Prompt:
type c:\boot.ini > a:\boot.ini
 
Yes, I did that. I format a:\ and copy ntldr,
ntdetect.com, boot.ini and some others. It boots ok from
floppy when I test it but it would not boot after I
unplugged one of the drive.

Thanks for your info
