Rails Installation Error

Question

I am getting the below error while installing Rails I am getting the below error after I run gem install rails

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
    You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0 directory.

I'm still learning CLI Linux, but I think this means your user does not have [CHMOD](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chmod) permissions for that directory. You'll either need to use `root` or `sudo`, as mentioned in the ansewr — Richard Peck, Apr 12 '14 at 10:03
