Answer 1

Remove broken or 404 repos from your /etc/apt/sources.list.

rvm will fail if you don't remove or comment them out.

To work out which aren't working, run apt-get update and see which ones are marked as failing.

Once you are using rvm, installing Ruby is easy.

rvm install ruby

rvm use ruby --default

I had the same problem.
