I used to write batch files for various software installation jobs and 
automated Windows workstation setups.  But that was many years ago and I've had 
"my fill" of that sort of thing.  I know scripts are much more capable than 
batch files, but I never took the time to learn how to use them and I don't 
really care to...besides...I don't have time to do anything like that.  But I 
know that there are a few guys out there that can write very good scripts that 
will even sense the distro name, version, and whether it's a 64 bit or 32 bit 
version and make the appropriate changes.  I'm well aware of my own 
limitations.  I know I need help.

As a note: I am also using Ubuntu on my production server. I remember having 
some severe fights getting everything up'n'running. But, the problems I had was 
(like others have mentioned in this thread) not hobo related, they were Ruby, 
rvm, nginx and passenger related. Well, actually - mostly ruby_ee IIRC...

In any circumstance: I would welcome a ubuntu setup. I have *nothing* against 
that. But, someone needs to do it and when done it needs to be maintained. And 
- I am not against any other OS combination to be added neither. With a section 
like that I would have struggled less getting my Ubuntu server ready... 

I think what I miss most of all in these situations is an authoritative guide 
on different "stacks". There are a fair amount of information on the internet, 
but the information is scattered and often for the wrong software combinations. 
Maybe someone wraps up a site similar to stackoverflow, but focusing on 
guides/scripts for different OS/software combinations. Maybe with branching 
like github for any scripts, for easy extends/customizations. Each "stack" 
would be for a given combination of software modules/versions, with 
stackoverflow comments and votes from other users on issues experiences or 
similar... These are wild ideas popping up as I write, but if anyone finds any 
value then please use my ramblings at will :)

Regards,
Ronny
