The output line "RVM sourcing line not found for Zsh, run the installer with '--auto-dotfiles' to fix it." puzzles me. I've no idea what "Zsh" is, nor is it clear what "installer" he's referring to. I guess he's referring to the command that supposedly install rvm. On an early attempt to install it, I did try this: \curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash --auto-dotfiles but it appears to have no effect. rvm still appeared to be NOT installed and EOJ. 3. lines 41-43: rvm is still not installed. 4. lines 45-50: I try the apt-get install (with no expectation it will work). No go. Any suggestions as to how to fix this will be much appreciated. I am running an identical OS on an HP netbook, and have rvm successfully installed and running just fine, there.
