Hello,
I have a problem. When i try to install a game (Enigma - enigma.deb) and i write "dpkg -i enigma.deb" i see an error:
/var/lib/dpkg/status: No such file or directory". And i dont have dpkg folder in /var/lib. What should i do? O.o
Thanks

What steps did you take up to this point? Do you have a full hard drive install? Did you install the gnu utilities and dsl-dpkg.dsl ?

There is a uci package for the latest version of Enigma in the myDSL repository...no additional dependencies necessary.

I've just installed DSL on hard drive(It wasn't frugal install, so it was full, i think XD ), but i haven't installed anything yet.

I  don't know too much about full installs since I stopped doing them after the first time. However, DSL does not include the gnu utilities in the kernel, or the dpkg utilities, so you need to download them from the DSL repository. Also, as Mikshaw said, there is already an Enigma uci available with no dependancies.
