The CVS version of getting started is about V2:

        bjam -a --without-wave  --without-test
        --prefix=/usr/local/boost-1.34.0_gcc-4.1.1
        --includedir=/usr/local/boost-1.34.0_gcc-4.1.1 
        toolset=gcc

on the command line and

        using gcc : : /usr/local/gcc-4.1.1/bin/g++ ;
        using python : 2.4 : /usr/local/python-2.4.4_gcc-4.1.1 ;

in your user-config.jam
