I guess I need to review recheck my own code again! Thanks for the response! Wel I also checked the rails code and it seems the assign operation is identical to the replace method :S

I too have strange boot up hangs. I have my system set to verbose so I did see it hang several times on: kernel: com.parallels.kext.prlnet 7.0.15052.710728 is unloading. which has not been a problem before. What I found your page from was searching the next line in the log, which was in Console after a safe boot but had not appeared on the screen when I forced the MacBook Pro to shut down even after giving it 3 hours to go past this (compared to your 15 min). UserEventAgent: CaptiveNetworkSupport:CaptivePublishState:1211 en1 - Probe followed by: UserEventAgent: CaptiveNetworkSupport:CaptivePublishState:1211 en1 - Probe UserEventAgent: CaptiveNetworkSupport:CNSPreferencesBuildSSIDLookup:278 ssidLookup: UserEventAgent: UserEventAgent: CaptiveNetworkSupport:CaptiveStartDetect:2343 Bypassing probe on MYMBPNAME because it is protected and not on the exception list UserEventAgent: CaptiveNetworkSupport:CaptivePublishState:1211 en1 - Unknown and there it must have sit for 3 hours. Very annoying especially as I had previously gone through extensive disk/directory rebuilds and restores from All Tests Passed backups.

Would you mind add it to RubyInstaller Tutorials page? https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Tutorials Also worth mentioning, if you installed MySQL 64bits (on a 64bits Windows) you will need to use something else than bundled headers and lib. I've blogged about that using MySQL Connector/C instead: http://blog.mmediasys.com/2011/07/07/installing-mysql-on-windows-7-x64-and-using-ruby-with-it/ Cheers! Hey, nice article!
