Hi MilhouseVH,
I still boot from NFS as I assumed it stopped SD card corruption and ran quicker. Is that no longer the case?

I've used NFS and USB boot and can't see any benefit.
Currently I use the solution MilhouseVH described with a USB flash, i.e., SD to boot, USB to hold Storage partition. Boot is very fast, around 20-25s but it depends on the flash drive you use.
Anyway, for me boot times are a moot point. My RPis are always on.
The current config I use -> boot=/dev/mmcblk0p1 disk=/dev/sda1 (disk=LABEL and disk=UUID gave me problems a few weeks ago and I haven't bothered debugging).
** EDIT **
I keep my SD cards locked! No corruption.

Regarding the problems with popups saying that addons are broken and asking if they should be disabled, although in the past, for me, this has mainly been just the PVR addons and after updating (although it seems to happen for Random Items script from time to time as well, not just after updating), I updated my brother's Gotham to the 02/10 build yesterday and he got the popups, so I told him to just say yes (he's not using the PVR addons). I was on the phone to him, so couldn't see his screen but after rebooting again later, he'd lost his xTV-SAF skin and it had gone back to Confluence (which was the only option available now).
After much head-scratching, I guessed it might be disabled so I got him to go into Addons and re-enable and it's working again now it but it was a pain and I hope these popups can be prevented in future somehow.
I actually just installed the Passion Repo (using repository.passion.xbmc.org.frodo-3.0.1.zip) on my system and immediately after, I got a popup telling me that xTV-SAF was broken and did I want to disable it. I said no of course as I'm using it but I'm not sure why it happened.

Does the System file ever get written to?
In other words, if the System file is on SD card can it still be write protected?
That would be the ideal solution I guess (having had a number of cards get corrupted in normal use).

Only when you update. At which point it's over-written.

No, SYSTEM file is read only unless you start pocking around with
# mount -o rw,remount /flash
My cards are always locked.
