Replacing first drive in failed array

[Brian D. McGrew]

I've got a software RAID array on my server, it's a RAID1 array with two
drives known as /dev/md0 made of up /dev/had and /dev/hdb.  This is the
primary boot device as well.  /dev/had has failed and I need to replace
it.  However, since /dev/had is where the BIOS looks to boot, how do I
do this without blowing myself up?

 

Should I swap had and hdb so the good drive is first and replace the
second drive?  Has anyone done this before?
