Newbie: installing rails on standalone pc

#you could download rails gem and its dependencies, then
#install them locally.
#gem install --local --include-dependencies rails

just a quick followup:

on my pc here (internet connected), i have already remotely installed rails (among other gems too). I found out that the gems are cached in my folder (windows xp pc) "c:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\cache". Do i need to copy only those?

I do not want to download the gems again in rubyforge, so i'm asking.

#ps. You better join rails maillist, there are so many helpful
#developers there ..

i'm joining now. i'll better jackup my quota now :slight_smile:

thanks and kind regards -botp

I believe those will do you fine. As I recall, you will need the
following from that cache directory,

actionmailer
actionpack
actionwebservice
activerecord
activesupport
rails
rake
