get var and /opt and other items out of root.  This way the files in the
root do not get changed often and your chances of a panic are lessened
consideriably.  Usually as a minimum I use:

/var
/boot
/home (if users files are ekpt on the machine)
/opt
/usr/local
/

It may seem extreme but I have had few to none situations like you
describe since moving to Journaling and getting all possible items out
of the root file system
