Hello,
thanks for the prompt reply.
I haven't  extracted the devkits and toolchains.....only extracted 
scratchbox-core and  scratchbox-libs.
(first extracted scratchbox -core in '/' (saved as 'scratchbox' )and then 
extracted scratchbox-libs into the 'scratchbox' folder in '/").

Do,I need to extract the toolchains and devkits into the scratchbox folder in 
'/'?

I did reboot the system as the documentation suggested and was trying to start 
'scratchbox' as per the document's procedure.But, it showed that 
error:scratchbox not properly setup.
Should I try out 'sudo /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_ctl start' instead of 
'/scratchbox/login' (will give that a shot)
Thanks once more for your help.If you have a simpler/clearer procedure for 
installation,do advice.
regards,
Avi

Have you extracted also the devkits and toolchains?

After a boot you need to start Scratchbox.

When it's installed from debian packages, it's done "automatically".
When installing from tarballs you need to start it manually:

sudo /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_ctl start
