Re: [Gems-users] Ruby module loading failed

Yuho,

Its relatively trivial to install Solaris without scripts on a sarek 
machine. You can even use the abisko scripts as a guide -- when I 
installed SolarisExpress (for which there are no scripts either) the 
process was  simple to do by hand.
Of course, if abisko works, there is probably no reason not to use 
abisko exclusively.
Regards,
Dan
