        Now it gets weird. I tried that command both as user and as root,
and got only

        ls: cannot access '/.snapshot': No such file or directory       

Not weird, just my mistake. I retyped from memory instead of looking at it or doing copy and paste. "ls -a /.snapshots" (It's plural...) Also, what about "lsof /.snapshots"?

        For most of my time, there has been no question whether I would
snarl up a machine, but only when. So every time I bought a new one, I
kept the old one and the one before it, in order to be able to holler for
help.

Sounds like a good plan. :-)

Was this drive brought over from a windows system? But anyway, there's your storage.

It appears like you took a large hard drive and set it up for some backup system, but I have no idea what one would work like that.
