nano.

Also, I think we could use more information, such as installation logs.
It should get the dns server from dhcp and put it in resolv.conf.
Failing that, the logs should tell why it couldn't. Are you sure you
have a correctly configured dhcp server?

Again, it's nano. This is documented on the help text when you start the
shell.
