Instant Rails 1.0 preview8 has been released. This is identical to  
preview7  
except that it restores the missing “log” subdirectories in the sample  
rails  
apps (cookbook and Typo).

If you have preview7 installed, please DO NOT download preview8. Just  
create  
a subdirectory named “log” in the two sample Rails apps as described in  
the  
FAQ:
