4. Also, with GPT, one has to be in single user mode to synchronize disks - correct?
I think the guide you linked to:
http://blather.michaelwlucas.com/archives/1071
meant that you have to be in single user mode until you have edited /etc/fstab to point to the mirror, otherwise you wouldn't boot with root on the mirror. The synchronization between the disks works fine in multi-user mode as well.
I have two 2 TiB disks in gmirror set up just like that. Synchronization was done running in multi-user.
You are right - just removed and then re-inserted a component in one of the mirrors and the mirror synchronized fine in multi-user mode.
