installing without root access

[Al Abdullaev]

I am a little bit confused. In the description of the 
process of how to install without root access it is said 
that I need to "The simplest approach is to simulate the 
portion of the / file system relevant to Perl under your 
home directory", What does it mean? Do I have to install 
perl in my directory or just use any location? Thanks a lot 
for the help guys and I am really sorry about my newbie 
questions, I just got into this.
