Newbie question alert:
I am trying to remaster DamnSmallLinux:
http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/index.html
Mains reason is that I am doing it on a computer with not too much disk space 2.5 gig avialable) or memory (64MB).
I have place a copy of DSL on the hard drive using these instructions:
http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1418
My problem arises when I run apt-get <anything>. It gives an error, stating that it cannot find various files, the first one being /var/lib/dpkg/lock. When I creat this directory, which does not exist, the next error arises, this time about not having access to /var/lib/dpkg/status.
Can anyone point me in a direction that is not into the ditches I seem to get into? :D
Thanx!
Steve
