Re: root,boot,var
The '/' mountpoint (the "root") contains subordinate directories like '/etc' and '/sbin'. Together these provide configuration scripts and data and commands that are intended for system maintenance in single-user mode when filesystems like '/usr' and '/opt' aren't mounted.
The '/opt' filesystem is for "optional" products. I prefer the term "additional" rather than "optional". The contents of '/opt' extend (add to) the core UNIX software found in '/usr'. In '/opt' you will find things like Perl, aCC, glance, etc.
See 'heir(5)' for more information:

Re: root,boot,var
The boot volume is where the kernel is, but boot information is also in a reserved area at the beginning of the disk.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
