My main suggestion would be to start by forgetting about Rails and just learning Ruby, understand the language and its object system, write a few simple command-line apps and get the hang of it. The best way to go depends rather on your programming background.
When you get to the point of learning Rails, there is plenty of stuff on the web. I found http://guides.rubyonrails.org/ really handy; you can go through the initial tutorial and get a simple Rails app up and going, then read through the other ones as you find you need them. -- Andrew Walbran website: http://q.geek.nz/ blog: http://qwandor.wordpress.com/
