Hi List,
I already checked the chef common errors faq, and I winded up here, so here
goes.

I ran :
# knife bootstrap 10.161.95.253 -x root

Everything worked:
Fetching: treetop-1.4.10.gem (100%).10.gem
10.161.95.253 Successfully installed treetop-1.4.10
....
There were some errors fetching some gems, but thats not the core issue:
 ERROR:  Error installing yajl-ruby:

And then:
 Successfully installed chef-0.10.6
 1 gem installed
 [2012-08-08T19:40:24-04:00] INFO: *** Chef 0.10.6 ***

kaboom.

Why?

Thanks!
