Sorry - I create the Mirrored during Installation selecting the 1
physical drive as boot+root and its mirror on a different physical drive
partition , however when I boot the PC from HDD after Install the PC
does not boot anything - I not sure if this is an error in writing the
boot-loader or I have stuffed up the Mirror


Sorry Per - OOP!

there anything special in creating a RAID (mirror) of the boot+root
partitions of a HDD.


Nope. When you say you've "not yet been able to Mirror", what exactly
do you mean? Coz' later on you say you have formatted and created a
RAID device.


Is there something I have possible not done to correctly boot from a
(RAID) Redundant boot+root drive on different physical media.


Boot loader config?


P.S Hate the new Partitioner in 11.1 - I saw nothing wrong with its
form in 11.0,


Yeah, same here. It took me a while to find "reread partion maps" in
the new one.
