I take it this is your question? And do I read correctly you mean that
you cannot boot if you disconnect drive A, but can boot if you
disconnect drive B?
In that case, could you please give some more details on 'could boot'.
Is this a problem with your bootloader (lilo, grub or other?) or with
the kernel?
For the record: here's my /boot/grub/menu.lst, which allows me to boot
from both drives of my mirrored raid-1 root partition.
timeout 15
default 0
color white/blue white/red
fallback 1

Good luck,
