This might be a silly questions, but as there was no answer to RuBiCK's question, I'll ask it anyway!

1) do you have enough diskspace, remembering that the uncompressed file will be larger than the compressed one (throwing in a silly point to go with my silly question!)

2) What is in the zip file? i.e. if it's a TAR file, then you can untar it directly using
Code:
funzip file | tar xf -

(the idea being that nothing in the tarfile is > 2GB)
