At the moment, datamapper 0.9 gems are published on http://gems.datamapper.org.
You’ve got to add that repository as a gem source:

gem sources -a http://gems.datamapper.org

If your’e in development mode, just edit your config/rack.ru and remove the following comment:

...

# comment this out if you are running merb behind a load balancer
# that serves static files
# use Merb::Rack::Static, Merb.dir_for(:public)

...

If you’re running a production blog, configure your http server/proxy to serve static files as it will increase performance.
