title: Installing Ruby on Rails on Ubuntu or Mint
body: <p>I have installed Rails on my Windows 7 partition, but it is so slow, so I decided to try to install it on Linux.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried Ubuntu 11.04 and Mint 12, and for both, I get the same problem.</p>
  
  <p>I am following the guide "Ruby On Rails Tutorial", and I also have a PDF installation guide called "Ruby On Rails Ubuntu Linux Mint.</p>
  
  <p>I get to the part where it says <code>type rvm notes</code> - which lists stuff to install. I then install all that stuff, and then when I type <code>rvm</code> it says "there is no rvm". Clearly, there was an rvm for me to type <code>rvm notes</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I have searched the drive (sudo find / -name <em>rvm</em>, and I get
  11 entries, including /etc/profie.d/rvm.sh and /etc/rvmrc. There is also a <code>ruby-rvm</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I gave myself a little time to test Django and Ruby, but I seem to be getting nowhere with Ruby.</p>
  
  <p>I am about to try the Turnkey Ubuntu Rails installation in Virtual Box, but I would still like to know why I cannot install it in Ubuntu or Mint. I suspect it is the same problem on both.</p>
