editors in rescue mode

[Robert Holtzman]

Recently my system locked up because I screwed up my ~/.profile file. I 
decided to boot into rescue mode from the alternate ubuntu CD and couldn't 
find a text editor. Tried vim, vi, emacs, pico, etc all to no avail. Gave 
up, bailed out and booted into single user from the hard drive and found 
all the editors, repaired ~/.profile and all was well. The burning 
question is what editor is available on the alternate ubuntu CD rescue 
mode. There must be at least one or rescue mode is all but useless.
