The only group of 5 boxes for scales I know of are related to pentatonic scales. There are only seven modes of the major scale.

Did you see my reply to your earlier post on this subject? :)

I've covered the diatonic modes here:

http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=370

There are lots of diagrams on those pages showing all the modes and one graphic on the last lesson page showing all of them interconnected across the fretboard.

And how to practice & use them:

But if you are referring to the pentatonic boxes, I have those here:

http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=296
http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=185
http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=722
http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=737
http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=843
http://www.guitartricks.com/tutorial.php?input=914

Of course you might be referring to the CAGED system, which is a series of 5 shapes of chords covering the fretboard. It also has lots of diagrams! I did that here:

Hope this helps! Let me know if you are looking for something different & I can help point you in the right direction.
