You might look at the undelete tools here
http://freshmeat.net/appindex/1998/10/14/908382417.html
here
http://freshmeat.net/appindex/2000/06/10/960659825.html
and maybe the undeletion miniHOWTO here
http://www.cloudmaster.com/LDP/HOWTO/mini/Ext2fs-Undeletion.html
Also, look into setting the immutable flag with chattr on files you
really can't spare. Maybe even alias rm to rm -whatever-the-flag-to-prompt-is
on an important machine...
