Rails - Jul 2008 - fixtures, how to set a serialized Hash object

I defined in my model :
...
  serialize :unavailables
..

which is set like this (Hash :  "year" => 2-dimensional Array)
{"2008" =>  Array.new(13).map!{ Array.new(32, 1)}   }

In my fixture I need to initiliaze this field with the following
hash :

{"2008" =>  Array.new(4).map!{ Array.new(32, 1)}  +
Array.new(1).map!
{  [1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, 1,
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1] } + Array.new(8).map!
{ Array.new(32, 1)} }

I tried to write :

<%= Hash.new({"2008" =>  Array.new(10).map!{ Array.new(32, 1)} 
+
Array.new(1).map!{  [1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1,
-1, -1, -1, -1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1] } +
Array.new(2).map!{ Array.new(32, 1)} })  %>
but it gives me a full string :
myobject.unavailables
 "200811111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111..."

I also tried :
<%= Hash.new({"2008" =>  Array.new(10).map!{ Array.new(32, 1)} 
+
Array.new(1).map!{  [1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1,
-1, -1, -1, -1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1] } +
Array.new(2).map!{ Array.new(32, 1)} }).to_yaml  %>
but it gives me an empty hash :
myobject.unavailables
{}

any clue ?

thanks
