Jim,
It looks like you have a working bjam.exe. That's good.
Use gcc instead of mingw as the toolset.
it doesn't seem to work.
if I try to compile bjam with the gcc toolset, it just won't:
$ ./bootstrap.sh --with-toolset=gcc
I misread your symptoms. Sorry about that. Building a native bjam under mingw, then using it, requires this: cd BOOST_ROOT/tools/build/v2/engine/src ./build.sh mingw cd BOOST_ROOT tools/build/v2/engine/src/bin.ntx86/bjam.exe toolset=gcc https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4884#comment:10 Though I figured out how to do it, no one else really stands a chance. I'll bring it up on the developer's list: either http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/more/getting_started/windows.html#or-si... needs to show it, or bootstrap needs to change.
