boot from dynamic mirrored disk

hello gurus,
I really wish if someone could help me on the following situation:
I have an ML330 with two internal Wide ultra scsi non hot plug drives and an adaptec scsi controller card
I created mirror disk using conversion of dynamic disk from windows server
after 3 years of loyal service, the principal HD is dead
when I removed the failed hd and tried to bott from the the second drive (the mirror) the system said: HD error press ctrl-alt-del to reboot
when plugged it into another machine wit his scsi card I can see the data on it(and even winNt folder)
question is: how can I boot my system from the second HD?
thanks for reading me until here
best regards,
reda
