There is a standard method, wich requires just a working Perl environment and 
Internet access:

$ perl -MCPAN -e "install 'DBI'"

Replace 'DBI' by the name of any DBD (or any other module) You like to install 
and continue. For example:

$ perl -MCPAN -e "install 'DBD::SQLite'"

This will work on any system, not only on Unixes.
But of course only for modules hosted on CPAN.
