1. Go to http://www.google.com/
2. Type in search box: rails 2.1 tutorial
3. Click on interesting links
4. Read
5. Go back to step 3
As of here it becomes optional:
5. Buy book on Rails
6. Read

Your best bet is to start out just like everyone else has and do your
research on the net with tutorials and then buy some books to learn
from.

Here is a really good Rails 2.x tutorial to get you going
http://www.akitaonrails.com/2007/12/12/rolling-with-rails-2-0-the-first-full-tutorial

Also, you may want to invest in some good books such as "Simply Rails
2" from Sitepoint and "The Rails Way" by Obie Fernandez. Both books
cover Rails 2.x extremely well and will have you building some apps in
no time.

Also, (this helped me more than any books ever could!) you may want to
download some code and really study it and play with it.

I downloaded both apps from the following places and literally learned
a ton in just about 30 minutes of checking out the code...

http://lovdbyless.com/ - open source social network that you can
download.
http://github.com/Radar/rboard/tree/master - Radar, this is a forum
app done quite well that the author is continuously improving.

That should get you going on your way. Good luck!
