Workaround:

	setdisk /home/files   (or whatever your DLE is named)
	cd *MAGS	(or "??MAGS": use a wildcard as args to cd)

Workaround nr 2:

	amrestore -p ... | tar -xvf - './  MAGS/some/file'

(While panicking, it is maybe wiser to restore into a temporary
empty directory to avoid overwriting critical files.)

Hi Paul!

Now I have a poster hanging above my desk saying: "Man of the day: Paul Bijnens"  :)
I tried your "workaround nr. 1", but it didnt work, but it gave me a clue, here is the workaround:
setdisk /home/files
cd "  MAGS"

So why I can't use: setdisk "/home/files/  MAGS"   is strange, but most important; it works!!

So thanks again!!!
