NoMemoryError on "gem install rails"
Greetings all--
Humble newbie requesting help here. I''ve just installed Ruby 1.8.2,
Rake
0.4.15, and RubyGems 0.8.8. When I try to get Rails into place via "gem
install rails," I get the error below. What have I done wrong? Can anybody
throw me a rope?

Thanks for jumping in, Ara. Given that I''ve installed all this on a remote server (tigertech.net, my webhosts--and yes they did grant me permission to do so), I''m not sure what my options are as to shutting things down. I guess my next step is to contact the hosts? To see if there''s something they can massage at their end to make more memory available to the process?
