I'm a little confused as to what exactly happened. Was your 2.4.2p2
install using /var/log/amanda/$config as the logdir and
/var/lib/amanda/$config/index as the indexdir? And then /var/log/amanda
got erased?
If that's the case, I think you're out of luck. I believe that amrecover
needs the logfiles to locate the proper indices and/or tapes. You can
still look at 'em by hand, though.
