Can't load specfs

I tried unsuccessfully to post this message earlier - Please forgive me if
it posts twice

I have a 220R running Solaris2.6 and on which  have installed DiskSuite4.2
from the Easy Access Server 2.0 CDROM.  After completing the procedure to
mirror the root partition of my system disk to the second internal disk I
get the following error message when I tried to boot from the second disk:
ok  boot disk1
.............

(Can't load specfs) Program terminated

What am I doing wrong??

1. Help -- Can't load specfs.

OK, so I had a bad day.  I thought I'd try to salvage it by taking a stab
at debugging an intermittant SCSI cabling problem.  Get everything hooked
and boot.  Comes up fine, looks good.  I log in, whoops errors on sd3,
I guess it's still not working, better shut down and get that tape drive
off the chain.  So I do that and power up the machine.  It starts to load
the OS, urp -- can't load specfs -- and I get an OK prompt.

I've got a classic running 2.4, 16m ram and a Seagate 31200.  Anybody
run into this before or have any ideas how to fix it.  I'm not excited
about reloading from scratch and as aluded to above the tape drive ain't
'zactly cooperatin.

Thanks in advance
