I looked some more into this problem. I don't have it working yet, but I know that Jam is failing while executing the MkDir rule. I downloaded the latest version of Jam from Perforce, that too builds fine on Ubuntu, but when trying to build the same code in a Scratchbox session, it fails in the same way as boost fails, when trying to create a directory bin.linuxarm. The failure messages are similar to what I had sent earlier.
Timo, since you have built boost/jam in Scratchbox and have it working, do you remember having any problems with Jam? Can you help me resolve this issue? Don't understand why Jam is unable to create directories under my Scratchbox home directory, I'm able to create directories with the same name in the same location. Would appreciate any suggestions regarding this.
