How do I specify the ruby source folder from which rvm should install ? Looking for a command something like "rvm install 2.0 --source=/path/to/folder"

rvm downloads and unpacks sources automatically, why do you want to give custom path to sources for rvm?

There are some custom changes in the source files. Is there no way to point rvm to it ?

there are few ways, you can use patches, custom tar package and custom git repository, I guess the simplest will be the last one:

    rvm install 2.0.0-head --repository /path/to/your/sources

just make sure the sources directory is configured with git.
