Did you install rvm locally, or system wide? I have never had a real problem installing rails with rvm on 10.10, I just had to apt-get the required libs for ruby, and then everything else worked fine (with a normal rvm install). I would try rvmsudo gem install rails, who knows... Also remember, when you run the rvm install script or any of the following rvm commands, dont sudo it for a normal installation.

I installed it locally, but for some reason the .gem folder was root user and not my local user so it would not allow me to run gem install rails unless I used sudo. To fix this I had to chown the .gem folder to my user and then everything worked as it should. I just found it strange that I was the only one that seemed to have this issue since it looks like it should happen to everyone who follows the steps.
