Do the recovery to a scratch area, then use a file manager to copy 
back anything in the recovery thats newer than the main restore.

But this does bring up a question.  When a restore/recover is done, 
amanda should ask for, in sequence, a series of tapes so that 
amanda does indeed get the newest copy of everything when a restore 
is done.

This may not have occured if the restore was done manually via dd 
and tar or dump, but the capability is supposedly there.
