Re: boost build from source code

Actually what I am trying to do is to cross-compile BOOST source code to ARM machine.

I have to run ./bootstrap.sh, and then b2.
As far as I understand b2 executable runs on my Linux machine, but 'using gcc' in user-config.jam should point to my cross- compiler

Thanks,

You say Linux version of Boost, then I take it as binaries.
If you download (some) binaries of Boost, and regardless of where they
come from,
you do not need to run ./bootstrap.sh which does re-build b2 executable.
Use b2 from "Linux version of Boost" you downloaded.
