Why install virtualenv? I would try:

easy_install boto

or

pip install boto

pip and easy_install are python tools for installing other packages. Who is your hosting service? If they have these utilities, using them would be the easiest route.

http://www.saltycrane.com/blog/2010/02/how-install-pip-ubuntu/

That link will tell you how to install pip and easy_install (because easy_install is part of the setup tools package) under a system that uses apt. Otherwise, look up instructions specific to your system.

If you can SSH in, then I would install virtualenv and install bobo in a virtual Python environment. It's surprisingly easy and fully featured.
