This morning I was greeted with "kernel panic snapacct_ufs2: bad block.
Cannot dump. No dump device specified". Fsck in single user mode returns the
following over and over:
UNREF FILE
I=1912306
OWNER=me
MODE=100600
Size=0
MTIME=today
Clear?
Is there any way I can turn off snapshots from single user mode?

If you can't access lost+found when you're root, things are definitely
messed up, or the partition was NFS mounted or something and it was broken.
Probably you should rebuild this machine, such that /jail is bigger.
This is one of the reasons I don't like jails: its always the wrong size,
and you have to deal with it. ;-)
Getting a small ups for the system wouldn't be bad idea either, if this is
an important machine. Glad to help!
