The packaged linux installations such as deb and rpm fill will install
LMS in predefined standard locations and do checks for dependencies.

Using a tar ball, you can do a manual installation but you may to build
some dependent libraries/modules.  Once installed you can place LMS
directories anywhere using command line options  or preferences 

Code:
--------------------
    
  --cachedir       => Directory for Logitech Media Server to save cached music 
and web data
  --logdir         => Specify folder location for log file
  --prefsdir       => Specify the location of the preferences directory
  
--------------------


However when trying to install a new version of LMS (e.g. 7.9.*),  you
will run into other issues about having to get required Perl modules
with the right version which may not be available for a 7 year old
Kubuntu system - this could be a lot of extra work if you are not Linux
familiar.
