unzip doesn't work in PCEmulator
I have tested zip and unzip in floppy_FREEDOS.img and hd20_DOSDEV.img, and unzip just hangs and cannot even list files in a zip-file. After it hangs it is possible to reboot using Ctrl+Alt+Delete, but Ctrl+C and Ctrl+Break doesn't work. Maybe this copy of unzip is bad or the emulator cannot handle it. However, zip works well. I have disabled PSRAM and use a TTGO VGA32 V1.4 21-2-20. When I had PSRAM enabled it also didn't work.
It would be useful to add zip-files to an img-file and then uncompress them in PCEmulator, since it is more difficult to add a directory with many files using WinImage 9.0 from Chocolatey. BTW what system do you use to create and populate the image files?
I found this report that it is a bug in FreeDOS 1.3 to have an unzip that requires an i386. https://sourceforge.net/p/freedos/bugs/358/ There was some alternative that I should test, but I think that all files that are downloaded by PCEmulator should work with its emulated CPU (i.e. currently i186 (80186), but perhaps in the future V30).
