I used your instructions on a Knoppix 5 HD install after failing to be able to use the 'long way' (Synaptics PM retrieved boost-build v2 and bjam, but they refused to install v1.3.1 off sourceforge). Only the apt-get on the boost python lib gave me trouble. I don't need it, so I omitted it. Anyway - hats off to you. Thanks a million!

It's different on different GNU/Linux distributions, for example: -lboost_filesystem for Gentoo/Fedora/SUSE -lboost_filesystem-gcc for Slackware/Zenwalk I use any one of them in the example code with the assumption that it will be replaced by whatever actual name is used on a particular distribution.
