I don't have access to that web page. Sorry but I couldn't see it. How can I get over the "permission denied" output to "./bootstrap.sh" command? Do you know?

The URL that you want to look at is: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_45_0/more/getting_started/index.html or if the boost.org site is not reachable: boost_1_45_0/more/getting_started/index.html in your unpacked tarball.

The reason that your shell says "permission denied" is most probably that the file lacks the 'x' permission bit, which marks it as executable. You can alter this by issuing the command: chmod +x bootstrap.sh And please, Viatcheslav, do not joke about things that can damage a system or destroy data. It is not amusing and the fallout can be severe. Please try to be a bit more formal, will you? -- Lars Viklund | zao@acc.umu.se
