In our case the systems we are using aren't mirroring the whole drive, just 
certain slices. Some systems have a single slice mirrored (plus an unmirrored 
slice), and others have two slices mirrored (plus a third unmirrored slice). I 
need a way to destroy the existing mirrors, without doing a gmirror load, and 
ultimately without making any assumptions about the number or condition of 
mirrored slices on the drives I am about to install a new OS onto.
