error when building boost 1.45

I am trying to build 1.45 with the following command on Win7 x64 with
MSVC 9:
bjam variant=release link=shared threading=multi runtime-link=shared
--layout=tagged install
and I get the following output:
warning: No toolsets are configured.
warning: Configuring default toolset "msvc".
warning: If the default is wrong, your build may not work correctly.
warning: Use the "toolset=xxxxx" option to override our guess.

You need to build the bjam included with 1.45. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Thanks, I'll try that. Still, isn't it wrong that the bjam build linked directly above the 1.45 download link can't build 1.45? http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.45.0/
