I used : bjam "sTOOLS=gcc" -prefix=/nfs/us13/sverker/c++/boost/install/ install First it said #skipping phyton..." which is ok with me. Then I get : --------------------------------------------------------------------- don't know how to make sTOOLS=gcc don't know how to make -prefix=/nfs/us13/sverker/c++/boost/install/ ...patience... ...found 10593 targets... ...updating 3329 targets... ...can't find 2 targets... Then I get many complaints that it cannot write in /usr/local.. And finaly : ...failed updating 111 targets... ...skipped 3218 targets... ...updated 851 targets... /nfs/us13/sverker/c++/boost/install/ is empty. Do I always have ro run under root? Why do I get these two "dont know how to ..."?
