Given the "blocks larger than 128k are not supported" message it sounds
like you enabled large block support on your root pool, which is not
supported. If this is the case then your only option is to boot from a
rescue disk and transfer the data off.
Note if this the case, its not the unclean reboot that caused the issue
its the large block size, which would have happened even with a clean
reboot.
