I guess there is some sort of issue you have, but you still can install each one of them as below:

for man, this may help: http://www.ehowstuff.com/how-to-install-man-command-on-linux-centos-6-2/

for nano, use this command to install it:* yum install nano

for wget, use this command to install it: * yum install wget


Good luck!!

I'm well aware you can install them, but these should be pre-installed in the base image.

Yah, well I'm not sure it is going to be removed by default to reduce the size when converted to an image or not...

I guess an image should be the same as the pre-installed, as you mentioned...

I hope DO staff can give a comment on this!!

@mshq20022001, thanks. I had the same problem. In my case, the following command worked (without the asterisk):

sudo yum install wget
