Is there any special way to keep most important
files in ext2 filesystem ...

"Wht is the procedure

It is not very practical to try to recover deleted ext2 file systems. It is much more practical to have a good backup and restore system.

You can use the debugfs to try and recover a deleted ext2 file. Using debugfs for this purpose is messy, only sometimes successful, and can easily damage your filesystem.
