OK.. I'll quote *exactly* the command:

        bjam -sTOOLS=mingw install

Which is comparable to what is in the docs at:

        http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html#step5

The differences from what you did:

        1. You used "MINGW", it should be "mingw".
        2. You used "--install", it should be "install".

I just don't know how clearer I can be.

HTH.
