Jordan, over at Grinding Rails, has posted a great tutorial for getting your Rails app up and running if your webhost happens to be TextDrive (like me):

This recipe will get you setup to develop with Ruby on Rails and use Textdrive to host your application. I wrote this recipe using a Mac Mini Core Duo, but I have also run it successfully on an iBook G4, PowerMac G5, and Fedora RC4 boxes. This recipe should work on any *nix based machine, but there are a couple quirks with OS X.

Jordan does focus on using OS X, but many of these tips can be used no matter the OS you’re running locally.
