I still think the no glue/perimeter glue option is a good one for him as a DIY. If it is sheet vinyl you can use a hook knife to rough it in and then take your time to trim it in with a carpet knife or utility knife. Just pressing it to the wall with a stiff putty knife will help.
Did I mention you should have it very clean?
If you are putting in real linoleum then it is a bit harder to cut and trim. I am not sure on the new stuff but the old stuff was a bit brittle if you bend it too much. Heat gun would help there.
There are a ton of other choices for a durable floor. Go check with a local mom and pop store that has the higher end stuff.
