It wrote 13.5G to tape, and according to your output below, 7.6G of that was from
your "beosrv-1 /redhat" disklist entry.  I think the cruft file messages are just
a result of the somewhat asynchronous nature of amanda. The chunk files are removed
after each set is written to tape but may not be all gone yet when Amanda scans
for other chunk sets to flush to tape.  Anything that it doesn't know what to do
with is reported as 'cruft', whether it is some odd file put in the holding disk
or a chunk that isn't part of a complete set (the chunk files are named as
host.filesystem.level.chunknumber).
  'Notes' are just informative, 'strange' needs to be examined, it may or may not
be a problem, and 'warning' you better pay attention to.
