I think they are all pretty much suitable for Drupal — it is a personal preference. Many on SliceHost forum would prefer Ubuntu as it is easier to manage, and packages are about as updated as Gentoo.
I am not familiar with RoR (I’m a Python programmer), but both Gentoo and Ubuntu should be fine having Drupal and RoR running side by side.
I think the best way to run it is by setting up small web server such as Nginx, and use it to either
FastCGI to PHP to run Drupal
Proxy to Mongrel to run RoR
It should also be possible to do the same on Apache (which I guess Drupal will be most happy with). SliceHost’s forum has more experts on RoR so do ask questions there :)
