I'm having trouble with installing gems 0.8.1 on Ruby 1.8.2 (latest RC)

C:\temp\rubygems-0.8.1\\> ruby install.rb  
install.rb:139:in `chdir': No such file or directory - packages/sources  
(Errno::ENOENT)

from install.rb:139:in `install\_rb'

from install.rb:148

Any idea what's wrong?

And how do I then install the gems update?

Thanks

Pure operator error. Sorry for the noise.
