Hmm, I see I forgot to install boost-build .. all i did was install boost_1_33_1.exe.. thought it had it all. Now I have unzipped boost- build-2.0-m11.zip inside my boost_1_33_1 directory. It contains a bootstrap.jam file and a new error appear: C:\boost_1_33_1\libs\python\example\tutorial>bjam sTOOLS=vc-8_0 error: Could not find parent for project at '../../../..' error: Did not find Jamfile or project-root.jam in any parent directory. In case you didn't guess... I am totally lost by now! :) If I ever get this thing up and running.. I will write a new tutorial and send it to boost. Thanks!
