Ok. I went back and built bjam and jam from .\tools\build\jam_src. Then I
tried:
/path-to-jam/jam -sBOOST_ROOT=. sTOOLS=msvc
and got:
<result>
Couldn't find Python 2.1 installation in c:/tools/python
skipping Boost.Python library build
You can configure the location of your python installation, by setting:
PYTHON_ROOT - currently "c:/tools/python"
PYTHON_VERSION - currently "2.1"
The following are automatically configured from PYTHON_ROOT if not
otherwise set
PYTHON_INCLUDES - path to Python #include directories; currently
PYTHON_LIB_PATH - path to Python library; currently
"c:/tools/python/libs" "c:/tools/python/PCBuild"
PYTHON_STDLIB_PATH - path to Python standard library modules; currently
"c:/tools/python/Lib"

Should I just wait for the 1.28.0 pre-build Jam executables (and associated
instructions) to be posted?

This worked once. Then the [yeah, it wasn't backed up] disk drive died. Target system is Win2000, SP5 and MS Visual C++ 6.0, SP5.

I've clearly screwed something up but I can't figure out what. Help would be appreciated.
