Hello,

Emmanuel and Steve already provided you with useful suggestions.
I still feel uncomfortable with the "&" that precedes the "rm -rf __MACOSX" part; what is it supposed to do here?
On the other hand, are you unzipping on a FAT volume? what's the provenance of the zipped files?
More generally, which command(s) exactly do you type in Terminal.app when unzipping by hand the files contained in a folder?


Axel
