'man'

[Brian Meenan <bmeenan@yahoo.com>]

Hello all:

I just installed Debian for the first time (Install was very easy and
went well).  So far I've only installed the base system (rescue,
driver, bases 1 through 5)  It seems to be working quite well and I'll
start adding some packages soon but I have one concern.  I can not use
'man'.  I always need help when it comes to using various commands.
When I type 'man' and the name of a command like df or something it
says unknown command.  Do you think there's a problem with my install?
 Do I need to install a package in order to get the manual command? 
Any suggestions you have would be greatly appriciated.

TIA,
Brian Meenan
