Subject: Rails: generate scaffold Product Admin overwrites admin pages

[This post belongs on the Rails mailing list but its server is full]

Rubies:

I'm up to the infamous Page 57 in Joel Spolsky's most favoritest book in the 
whole world, /Agile Web Development with Rails/ by the Daves.

It says:

   ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin

That makes an instant view and editor into the Product model and database 
table.

Now suppose I want to, uh, create a second database table, and I need a 
second administration view on it. So I create the table, and then run this:

   ruby script/generate scaffold AnotherTable Admin

The system overwrites (with permission) the exiting administration files.

What's the fix? Should I rename the prior files? If so, what's the exact 
list to rename, and how to keep them linked in?
