Are you doing this on Windows 95?  If so, it might be that the
cross-compilation kit won't work there (I haven't tried, so I'm just
guessing).  You might try running it from plain DOS (no Windows).

And no, unzip386.exe does NOT support long filenames.

Did you use the mc68k cross-compiler which is mentioned in the FAQ
(section 22.7)?  If not, try using it.  If you *are* using it, try
writing to the people whose addresses are in that section and ask them
about your problems.
