Installing ruby gems
Hi, we have a working fai installation here, and I would like to install Ruby on Rails on the fai clients. It's no problem to add the ruby packages, but in order to install rails I have to use the ruby package management tool gems. I thought that adding a script that calls gem install --include-dependencies rails should do the job, but it doesn't. I could use fcopy to just copy the files to the client after installation, but that seems to be a bad workaround. Is there a proper way to do this? thanks, Ulli

Try this $ROOTCMD gem install --include-dependencies rails $ROOTCMD will do the chroot /target for you, or during a softupdate it's just empty. -- regards Thomas

I'll send it later. [...] $ROOTCMD gem install --include-dependencies rails Ah, ok. I missed that one. Thanks a lot. Now I remove the hack I introduced that executed the command immediately after the first reboot. Thanks, Ulli
