Thanks Maarten,
How would I go about linking -lboost_system and -lboost_thread? I'm 
sorry, I am just starting out with Linux. I should say that I am using 
Ubuntu 14.04. Thanks in advance for any and all help you can provide.
Exactly the way you've written: add "-lboost_system -lboost_thread" to 
the command line. If you installed Ubuntu's boost-all-dev package the 
libraries should already be under /usr/li where linker will find t hem;; 
if not add -L<path-to-directory-containing-libraries> to tell the linker 
where the libraries are.

Cheers,

Leon

All the best,

Hello everyone,
I have been attempting to install OpenFOAM however the boost
    library has been giving me trouble, most recently reading out
    these error during OpenFOAM installation.
undefined reference to `boost::system::generic_category()'
    undefined reference to `boost::system::system_category()'
You need to link with -lboost_system (or equivalent for whatever name 
your platform uses). Most libraries in boost are header only, but 
that is not true for everything. Boost system is one of the libraries 
that needs a compiled library.
undefined reference to `boost::detail::set_tss_data(void const*,
    boost::shared_ptrboost::detail::tss_cleanup_function, void*, bool)'
    undefined reference to `boost::detail::get_tss_data(void const*)'
Similar problem, link with -lboost_thread

Maarten
