title: how to install software on linux without root permissions
body: <p>I need some help to install the ABySS assembler on PuTTY (virtual Linux) without root permission (as it takes a long time going via IT department etc.).
  To be honest I've no idea where to start from, so I'll be very appreciated for step-by-step guide if that is not too much to ask.
  Thanks in advance.</p>
