Hello, I have recently started to work with Boost 1.33 on Linux. I have an X86 based Ubuntu Linux machine. I have installed Scratchbox 1.0 (www.scratchbox.org) on this machine for embedded linux development. I'm able to build boost on Ubuntu, however when I try to do the same within Scratchbox using an arm-gcc-glibc toolchain, the Boost build scripts fail because mkdir commands are failing. I was able to build Boost.Jam by manually creating the required directories within Scratchbox. Now while building Boost 1.33, I'm trying to build the Boost.Python module and it fails in a similar way on MKDIR. I want to fix this mkdir failure problem because I can't manually keep creating each required directory. Would appreciate it someone could help me out with this. Looking at the archives I've read emails that indicate Boost has been successfully built within Scratchbox. This is probably a problem in my Scratchbox environment, but don't know how to fix it. I'll post a similar email on Scratchbox forums too. Thanks in advance. Rohit
