Build your own loader:
cd bootloader; python waf configure build install
pyinstaller /path/to/yourscript.py
or the following when using PyInstaller without installation:
python pyinstaller.py /path/to/yourscript.py
For more details, see the doc/Manual.html.
Unpack the archive on you path of choice.
For Windows (32/64bit), Linux (32/64bit) and Mac OS X (32/64bit) precompiled boot-loaders are available. So to install PyInstaller:
python setup.py install
For other platforms, users should first try to build the boot-loader before installation:
cd bootloader python ./waf configure build install
