That "Bubble" is more than likely an area where moisture has migrated up and condensed under the covering to form water. This water is harmful to the glue or mastic that was used to stick the linoleum to the substrate.
You can use a razor knife held at a 45 degree angle to slice open the center of the bubble. An absorbent cloth will absorb moisture underneath and a hair dryer to evaporate any remaining moisture will restore a dry surface. Apply glue starting at the outer edge of the bubble working your way to the center where your cut was made. Pressure Roll toward the center and see glue coming up through the angled cut. Remove any excess glue that comes to the surface from the cut and place something flat with a weight on top and allow to cure for the recommended time.
Any floor covering is susceptible for moisture to collect underneath and is especially true in rooms that have water in them. [Baths, Kitchens and Laundry Rooms] If the substrate is concrete, All Concretes Should Be Waterproofed before any floor covering is installed. That will stop moisture vapor emissions that cause this.
On Vinyl and PVC floors and Linoleum steam is OK

A concrete path produces greater friction that a linoleum floor because its surface is rougher. This allows more surface area to contact an object moving along the path.
If the duct tape is just taped on the floor, just carefully remove the tape. Using the edge of a knife helps lift it off the floor to start with.
To remove a bubble from a linoleum floor, puncture the center of the bubble with a large, sharp sewing needle. Go all the way through the linoleum to allow trapped air to escape. Press from the outside of the bubble toward the puncture to release the air. Once the bubble is flat, place a soft cloth over the bubble area, and using a household iron, press over the bubble until it flattens. Place a stack of heavy books on top of the bubble for 24-hours to set the linoleum.
