Attempting local installation of ‘rails’  
Local gem file not found: rails\*.gem

Yeah, I think the assumption is that the person who would be installing  
or  
updating the Rails gems is in an administrative role, and would  
therefore  
know to either do that while logged in as root or to use sudo, whichever  
floats their boat.

Thanks.

I think the 1.1 page should be updated accordingly. Lots of newbies are  
going to ask like I did 🙂
