To install the Boost Thread library, follow these steps:

1) Visit www.boost.org in your web browser.
2) Click the "Getting Started Guide" link.
3) Click the "Getting Started on Unix variants" link in the lower right corner.
4) Download the Boost distribution using the link in the "1 Get Boost" section.
5) Unpack the Boost distribution into a temporary directory; e.g.:

  tar xjf boost_1_38_0.tar.bz2

6) Build the source using the "Easy Build and Install"; e.g.:

  cd boost_1_38_0
  sudo ./configure
  sudo make install

This will install Boost into a subdirectory of /usr/local; e.g.:

  /usr/local/include/boost-1_38
