Sorry, I forgot to add:
* sudo hadoop namenode -format => you must format the namenode as the
user hdfs. So you should type "sudo -u hdfs hadoop namenode -format"
* /usr/lib/hadoop/bin/st{art,op}-all.sh scripts are not supported and
will be removed soon (as in as soon as someone tackles it). Services
should be started/stopped through the init scripts located in
/etc/init.d/hadoop-*
