Hi all, I had create a scaffold in a new rails app.  
Just title:string and body:text for a Note scaffold.

The problem is that when I go to the new page  
([http://0.0.0.0:3000/notes/new](http://0.0.0.0:3000/notes/new))  
webrick crash and I can just see “Illegal instruction”.

Illegal instruction

Also from the log file I can’t understand the problem:

I had update the gems system and I use Mac Leopard with mysql and ruby  
1.8.6.  
I’m surfing with google but till now no response.  
Before the gems update no problem but I don’t used utf-8 before on local  
and I don’t know if this is a problem.

Any help will be appreciate.
