Portable Ruby on Rails environment

Question

I got myself a new 8 gig USB key and I'm looking for a decent solution to have a portable RoR environment to learn on. I did the google on it and found a few possibilities, but I'm curious to hear some real life experiences and opinions. Thanks!

Answer 1

I like InstantRails, very easy to use, no installer, and does not modify your system environment.

Answer 2

InstantRails was replaced by [BitNami RubyStack] in 2007.
