That's OK. It's not exactly obvious how this would be done.

No.
If you're using Amanda 2.4.2 or later, it would look like this (I think --
I only did minimal testing):
202.85.164.38 /home {
# Do /home/a through /home/k.
comp-root-tar
exclude "./[l-z]*"
}
202.85.164.38 /home/. {
# Do /home/l through /home/z.
comp-root-tar
exclude "./[a-k]*"
}
If you're running something older than 2.4.2 (or this will work for
2.4.2 as well), add this to amanda.conf:
dumptype comp-root-tar-a-k {
# This dumptype is just like comp-root-tar (it inherits it) but does
# only areas starting with a through k (excludes l through z).
comp-root-tar
exclude "./[l-z]*"
}
dumptype comp-root-tar-l-z {
# Like above but does l through z (excludes a through k).
comp-root-tar
exclude "./[a-k]*"
}
Then your disklist would look like this:
202.85.164.38 /home comp-root-tar-a-k
202.85.164.38 /home/. comp-root-tar-l-z
