Ah, it's the same as what was output to your console. I was hoping it =
would have more information.

Where is Ruby installed on your system? Does the config.yml file =
generated by the DevKit setup match your installed Ruby?

Do you have the operating_system.rb file as mentioned in step 4? Does it =
look right? If you're not sure, you could try posting that and your =
devkit.rb file here so we can review them. I don't know what it's =
supposed to look like, but I can at least see the source and make an =
educated guess. :)
