Hi All,  
I am working usually on a WSs with Solaris 9 but which does not have  
Ruby installed, and as I want to be able to run Ruby scripts on them,  
so is that possible to have it installed on a CD or USB memory key?

Yes, but only if it’s first been compiled by Solaris.

Different assembly languages 😑
