I''m nearly complete with the next release of RailsLiveCD ( http://www.railslivecd.org ) and I''m asking for suggestions for programs to include on the distribution. It''s got jEdit, RadRails, Subversion, MySQL, PostgreSql, SQLite and all of the useful gems already installed. What do the folks out there on Linux need for a good Rails environment? I''ll incorporate the useful suggestions and release this week.

Can you tack Mongrel and Apache onto it....? That would so totally rock for people setting up servers. Maybe it could be a live DVD?

This distribution is aimed very specifically at developers. It is not hardened for public web serving in any way. In fact I haven''t spent a moment''s thought on security other than what comes built in the base Linux distribution. I would not use this for serving a public site. And it doesn''t include all of the production quality framework that you might need -- like Apache or lighttpd. I''ve only included the things a developer would need. Now since we''re talking about it, it seems like there''d be a nice place for another LiveCD distribution. One that''s ready for VPS installation or dedicated server installation. Maybe if I become independently wealthy and end up with more spare time than I know what to do with...

Maybe it could be a live DVD?It already has Mongrel, but as I stated above I certainly wouldn''t recommend making this a public facing server. I''ll see if I can fit Apache. It''ll be tight. I could look at 2 versions -- one that''s DVD sized and one that''s CD sized. That''s a possibility.

I''m not sure how you''re putting together packages, but as long as you are using packages from some distro (e.g. Fedora or Debian) it should be fine. If you are compiling from source make sure to take everything it installs (i.e. don''t miss /usr/share/vim or whatnot). } Brian --Greg --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

The Textmate templates for radrails and jedit could be nice http://devillecompanies.org/2006/10/08/radrails-textmate-templates/ Also there are emacs config files for editing ruby code, which I could never get working on my own.. http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToUseEmacsWithRails And Ie4Linux: I haven''t tried this but it would be nice to have to avoid having to switch back and forth between windows, if its as good as it sounds that is.. http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page And maybe SWIG, for when you need to build some hardcore extensions http://www.swig.org/ Is it possible to preinstall firefox extensions on these?
