First off thanks needs to go to @srushe for his notes on this that I ripped off. I installed ruby back when I first got this server – but the version that I got was 1.8.5 and this morning I tried to install rubygems but it complained that I needed 1.3.6. I will wait for yum to upgrade it. So I got the latest rubygems package that would work with 1.3.5.. Here is what I did:

wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/60718/rubygems-1.3.5.tgz
tar -xvvf rubygems-1.3.5.tgz
cd rubygems-1.3.5
ruby setup.rb
sudo ruby setup.rb
sudo gem install rails
sudo gem update --system
gem install capistrano
gem install capistrano-ext
gem install capistrano_rsync_with_remote_cache
gem install railsless-deploy

So that’ll do nicely. I will install ruby on rails soon to play with things under the hood again but the main thing is that I have installed capistrano. Am off to the christmas market now…
