I'll put in a strong recommendation for ganglia:

http://ganglia.sourceforge.net/

While it doesn't go directly to the point of a nagios plugin, there exists 
a graph of part_max_used, or the percentage used of your most full 
partition.  The great thing about ganglia is that there is virtually no 
setup required.  A great complement to Nagios that fits the role of metric 
trending much better than any other solution I've tried.
