Thanks for your answer.

I regret to ask you agin for help.

The instalation started, the directory boost\lib\ was created. But boost\lib 
keeps empty!!!

Before I run bjam with
    bjam.exe toolset=gcc install
I execute the following commands:
    set INCLUDE=C:\Dev-Cpp\include
    set INCLUDE=C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++
    set INCLUDE=C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\mingw32
    set INCLUDE=C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\backward
    set LIB=C:\Dev-Cpp\lib
    set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Dev-Cpp\bin
    set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Dev-Cpp\lib\gcc-lib\mingw32\3.2

The result of the installation was:
    ...failed updating 314 targets...
    ...skipped 345 targets...
    ...updated 7134 targets...

What am I doing wrong? I included all the directories, that are included in 
dev-cpp after the instalation.

Thanks for reading.
