Catkin can be installed by simply following the CMake standard
build/install process:

$ cd /path/to/catkin/src
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ (sudo) make install

Alternatively you can build catkin in a workspace with other catkin
packages (this is sort of like a bootstrap):

$ mkdir catkin_ws
$ cd catkin_ws
$ mkdir src
$ cd src
... Checkout catkin and any other catkin based packages here...
$ cd ..
$ ./src/catkin/bin/catkin_make
$ ./src/catkin/bin/catkin_make install  # this passes the 'install' target
to make

Hope that gets you going.
