disaster recovery - did I do the right thing?

Hello all,
I did something stupid the other day (sleep deprivation combined with 
a "clever" hack were the main reasons), and I'm just curious if I did the 
right thing afterwards.

The mistake:
/usr/local/# rm -f *
note that root was running bash as a shell at the time, found 
in /usr/local/bin or something.

What I did was to start over, reinstall from scratch.
my question, was there an easier way?
thanks,
Ray
