[one-users] install_gems on opennebula 3.0beta2 (fwd)

[Tino Vazquez]

Dear Steven,

OpenNebula v3.0 needs at least ruby 1.8.7 in order to work properly.
This upgrade will also bring an update of rubygems, needed to install
missing gems. I've updated the documentation, which indeed wasn't
telling about this requirement.

You have several choices to install ruby 1.8.7, one of the easiest is
to use RVM [1].

Best regards,

-Tino
