I remember when I first starting learning linux using DSL, and I had the same problem. I also didn't have man, because DSL's man requires internet access, and that was before I figured out how to get internet on a linux machine.
In hindsight, i realize that man and info aren't very important commands. The same information can be gathered on the web.
I checked the repositories, and I don't think man pages or info are available there. If they were, I would recommend installing them, but since they are not, I'd just like to say that they aren't so important that you should stop using DSL to learn linux.
Also, if you need to compile something, download and mydsl-load the gcc1-with-libs.dsl from the repository. That was a big thing for me to figure out when I first started learning.
Good luck!
