I would say that you can do this by 2 ways :

A) The update one : using Xdarwin, you should be root to do the install
a) Using fink
"fink --help" will show you wath you can do.
"fink list" will show you package to install and Ruby (1.6.5)
"fink install ruby" to do it
b) using dselect

B) The older one : using MacosX terminal's, I still talk about it
because you can use it without Xdarwin
download the package Ruby (1.4) on
(http://www.apple.com/download/macosx/unix_apps_utilities/rubyprogramminglanguage.html)
