Need Help in install Boost on Redhat Linux

[TonyHa]

Hello

I try to install boost_1_33_1 on RedHat Linux.
I have downloaded boost into /user/dtgtools/tmp and I try to install it
into
/user/dtgtools/packages/boost.

I use the following commands:

export PYTHON_ROOT="/user/dtgtools/packages/python/2.5"
export
PYTHON_LIB_PATH="/user/dtgtools/packages/python/2.5/lib/python2.5"
export
PYTHON_INCLUDES="/user/dtgtools/packages/python/2.5/include/python2.5"

../bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc" --prefix=/user/dtgtools/packages/boost install

The gcc version I used is:
gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-47)

and I have the following Error message:

mkdir "/user/dtgtools"

....failed MkDir1 /user/dtgtools...
....skipped <directory-grist>/user/dtgtools/packages for lack of

and after that I got a lot of failed message: e.g.

....failed gcc-C++-action
bin/boost/libs/wave/build/libboost_wave.a/gcc/release/cpp_re.o...

etc...

What do I do wrong? What is the procedure to install boost into an user
specified directory under Linux?

[..] What is the procedure to install boost into an
user specified directory under Linux?

Please go to the Boost web site and consult with their online
discussion forums. This is a C++ language newsgroup, not "how
to install <product> on my <OS>" newsgroup.

Consult the following and adjust the TOOLS variable above as
appropriate.
http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html#Tools

Another alternative (if you enjoy Red Hat) is to consider Fedora Core
6. It comes with boost as an available package. I can't say much about
FC6, but FC5 is simply outstanding. And it too has boost available as a
yum package.

Thanks for your help!
