Add the Boost root directory to the compiler's #include <...> path
But this means you need to recommend a location for unpacking boost, outside bjam.
So add "Unpack the downloaded package to a Boost root directory, for example, c:\boost for Win32 or /usr/local for *nix."
Those particular directions will at best cause confusion because the archive has a top-level directory called boost_1_33_0 that is the Boost root directory. People will end up with c:\boost\boost_1_33_0 and think that c:\boost is the Boost root. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
