Before running the --second-stage, you must run the preinst script for
dash with the install argument.

# /var/lib/dpkg/info/dash.preinst install

If you use multistrap (the recommended way to create a bootstrap for
foreign architectures), this can be done automatically by specifying a
configscript.
