From Gentoo Wiki
Thus, after a stage 3 installation, the nano command will be available once chrooted to a newly installed Gentoo. As the stage 3 tarballs only contain packages that are strictly necessary for every system, Nano will be the only text editor available in the stage 3 chroot. A replacement editor may be emerged on the new system, as soon as the Gentoo ebuild repository is installed and optionally updated.
