I am guessing with three partitions that you have a boot, swap, and then zfs partition. You will need to duplicate the setup on the second drive, write the bootcode to the correct partition, use geom mirror to mirror the swap and then add the last partition to mirror. It shouldn't have been too small, but if you were trying to add /dev/ada1p3 to the zfs mirror the fact that the new disk doesn't have the gpart table setup and doesn't have a partition 3 may have given a bogus error message. -- Thanks, Dean E.
