Basically, they're just saying you saved the file to some location on your computer and since they don't have access to your computer, they don't know where. So if you saved the file "home.tar.gz" into your home directory, the /path/to/location would be something like "/home/linuxbee1/" and the full command would be tar -zxvf /home/linuxbee1/home.tar.gz.
