When running modular install mojo as root it works, but installs into /root/.modular, so I can't access it as normal user.

Steps to reproduce

the steps I took were

curl -s https://get.modular.com | sh -
modular install mojo

Fixed it by removing the $MODULAR_HOME variable, then rm -rf /root/.modular and after that doing the instalation process all over without root.

Thanks! yes, the CLI doesn't need root access.
