accident

hi,
i have accidently run this command in root
rm -f /*/*/*/*/* instead of */*/*/*/*.

It ran for about 5 seconds before i stopped it. the server seems to work fine and i restarted it also and booted up fine. is it something i shoud worry about?

by the way everybody....this is why you should not use root for everything
