Unzipping a .zip file
 
I have no idea how to unzip a .zip file on Linux. I have the sarge debian and if there's any possibility i dont have the packages needed to unzip the .zip file, please tell me. Thanks!

I can't remember the name off hand of the program but try:

whereis unzip
whereis zip


If unzip appears then you just have to use the command unzip filename.zip

If there is no unzip but there is zip try man zip to see what you have to use to unzip files

HTH :)

If you have a connection, you could use the command:
apt-get update
apt-get install unzip zip
