the rescue disks don't have perl on them for some reason, you have to get it and install it manually before you can do anything else. What I did was download the dpkg-ftp package, try to install it, it will of course complain about dependancy problems, and fail then just go to the ftp site, and download and install everything that dpkg-ftp complains about.. Incase you don't know how to do that, just type dpkg -i name_of_file.deb
