I would
recommend AppleJack to you, if you have a
Mac, are comfortable with the terminal and are
concerned that you may have problems. AppleJack is
a collection of scripts that you run from
Single-User Mode that perform a variety of tasks
to repair, help maintain and try to prevent
difficulties. However, if the term Single-User
Mode is unknown to you, then maybe AppleJack is
not for you.
Single-User Mode is initiated from start up by Pressing Command-S (aka Apple-S). You will get to a black screen with a very old-style command line. From there, you run applejack. Once done, then you can restart the machine, or let AppleJack do it for you.
Don't just take my word for it, see also MacFixIt - Troubleshooting Tools: AppleJack
I heard about AppleJack from the MacBreak 18 podcast and I'm imnpressed with AppleJack.
