+===== Installing Boost Library =====
+The **boost** C++ library is required for the data system.  The tarball of the 1.6.2 version is in the repository.  Or download the latest from [[http://www.boost.org/users/download/]].  Here is the latest as of 2018.01.04 [[https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.66.0/source/boost_1_66_0.tar.bz2]]
+  - Uncompress the tar into **/opt** <code>
+cd /opt
+sudo tar -jxvf /opt/lvisf/src/tars/boost_1_62_0.tar.bz2
+</code>
+  - Symbolically link to a generic boost directory <code>
+sudo ln -s /opt/boost_1_62_0 /opt/boost
+</code>
+  - Chown it all to **lvis** user <code>
+sudo chown -R lvis:lvis /opt/boost_1_62_0
+</code>
+  - Set the environment variable for the **BOOST_ROOT** variable
+    - Edit the file /home/lvis/.bash_profile <code>
+nano /home/lvis/.bash_profile
+</code>
+    - Add the line <code>
+# Add the boost root directory
+export BOOST_ROOT=/opt/boost
+</code>
+    - Run our profile to load this variable <code>
+source /home/lvis/.bash_profile
+</code>
+  - Compile the **boost** libraries <code>
+cd /opt/boost
+./bootstrap.sh
+./b2
+</code>
+===== Installing USB Temperature Library =====
+Follow the instructions below to compile the USB temperature monitoring device libraries required.
