Cold reboot

Cold reboot

The server locked up with no response to keyboard or mouse. a cold reboot was performed, but the message no system disk appeared. We managed to get the server booted using a bootable floppy onto the mirrored drive. After checking out the database a warm reboot was performed without the bootable floppy disk and the server rebooted fine from disk 0. Is there any way round this without breaking the mirror and replacing disk 0 or trying to rebuild the master boot record on the disk.
