The isolated install is a single line with isolated=y added to the end. In the sample from Kovid's page, it points to your home directory (~/) with the install done in the calibre-bin directory (effectively /home/yourname/calibre-bin)
Code:
sudo -v && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin install_dir=/opt

wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sh /dev/stdin install_dir=~/calibre-bin isolated=y
I suspect that if you are not installing inside your home directory, you will need to add the 'sudo -v && ' before the wget and 'sudo ' before the sh /dev/ after the pipe |.
