Forum user reported this - they needed to get 'rubygems' which is an optional package.  They tried cloudforms but should have only needed optional:

We are changing the getting started page to indicate RHEL 6.2 users may need to install the optional channel.  The page should be tested.

Changed getting started page.

Tested it on devenv_1731, the following content has been added to gettting-started page:

(RHEL 6.2 only) If you are using RHN Classic, you may need to add the RHEL 6.2 Optional Channel in order to install the 'rubygems' package.

$ sudo rhn-channel --add --channel=rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6
