Installing Rubinius 2.0.0-dev with rbenv

Installing rbx-2.0.0-dev with Ruby 1.9 support using rbenv can be a tad tricky. This is what I did to get up and running, you'll need another version of ruby already installed as well as rake.

The basic outline:

  1. Clone Rubinius HEAD from github
  2. Configure installation for rbenv and 1.9 support
  3. Install Rubinius
  4. Configure your $PATH to use Rubinius gems
  5. Start using Rubinius
