anyone who has been a sysadmin for more than a couple of years who says
they have not done some form of `rm -rf *` is not to be trusted.
three things you must do to keep from very time consuming disasters:

and test the restore workflow. it can be fixit cd or whetever when you
are local. i am always remote, and am considering flash usb in every
server.
