You would get useful answers if you included information 
like what you hope to achieve.

/var, /tmp, maybe /home.
/dev is tickled to be written to, mostly on login.
If you never log in via a shell as non-root, that's moot (ie.
you use web based management tools).

Best thing it to just try it and have another disk to boot from
(easy on my Sun:  "boot disk2" is my test disk).

You could just look in GENERIC on your platform.
