amrecover can remove everything in the directory you restore to, so it
must not be /, it should always be an empty directory.
Debra, what you say doesn't make sense, if the dle is /var then the /var
path is not in the backup so it can't be restored.
But if the dle is / with and include or './var' then a var directory
will be created.

No, if you back up /var and are sitting ABOVE /var (i.e. in /
I suppose )
it’ll be okay. Otherwise, if you are sitting IN /var and you try to
restore /var
you’ll get /var/var
Won’t you? That’s the kind of thing I always find.

It should be in the right place if you are in the same directory as the
one you are backing up. If you back up /var and are in /var when
restoring, all data should be in the correct location once the restore
is completed.
