/var/lib/dpkg/lock file not found [Resolved]
I get to the part where you chroot and mount proc... then use apt-get update.
I get the following:
Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main Packages
.

.
Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/non-free Release
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (2: No such file or directory)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
I am root. I followed the Remastering howto to the letter. I cd to /var/lib
and there is no dpkg dir. Any ideas?

where it says you need to to rebuild the dpkg structure. now Im on my merry apt-get way.
