Or if you want to install from source:

wget 
http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/boost/boost-jam-3.1.13.tgz
tar -xzf boost-jam-3.1.13.tgz
cd boost-jam-3.1.13
./build.sh gcc
cp bin.linux/bjam $INSTALL_PATH/bin/

wget http://umn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/boost/boost_1_33_1.tar.bz2
tar -xjf boost_1_33_1.tar.bz2
cd boost_1_33_1
bjam --prefix=$INSTALL_PATH install


Where $INSTALL_PATH is the prefix to where you want it installed.

(I have a bash script that fetches dependencies and builds dolfin, which 
I can share if you're interested. It works for our lab running Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux.)
