I've never had a data loss.  However, what I do is tar up my /etc, /root
and /home directories and send the tar balls off to one of the vfat
partitions on this machine.  You might want to burn them onto a CD, if
extra cautious.

And...make sure you've got an emergency boot disk for yor current
working system.
