Well, it been weeks now, and I’ve had no rebooting. The trick? I re-installed a fresh os on a drive, then copied my home folder over and started installing apps. Actually, its surprising how well the Mac is congregating applications these days: i was able to just copy the apps from one drive to the new one. I also had to move the corresponding Application folder in /Library/Application Support. But almost all my apps just worked after copying them across.
