Ruby installation issue using RVM

I am having trouble installing Ruby using RVM. I had tried using readline and other suggestions online. None of the solutions worked.

I use Cygwin, Bash and have RVM installed.

rvm install 1.9.2
No binary rubies available for: /ruby-1.9.2-p320.
Continuing with compilation. Please read 'rvm mount' to get more information on    binary  rubies.

To install do: 'rvm install ruby-1.9.2-p320'

I see the below in the error log "/home/arvenkataraman/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.2-p320/yaml/make.log"

This work for me make sure RVM is up to date

rvm get head

CC=/usr/bin/gcc rvm install 1.9.2 --enable-shared

note: /usr/bin/gcc ==> path/to/gcc
