Jim, this question is only tangentially related, but why not copy the
ZIP file to the IFS and use jar to extract them? Just curious.

IMO, it's somewhat easier to use a GUI zip tool (7-ZIP, Windows exploder, etc) to extract the ZIP contents, and then transfer the unzipped files.

That said, it does require almost double the storage on your PC ... because LPP ISO's probably don't compress well. I never really understood why IBM zipped up the disk images for download.
