Ubuntu will work fine. The only to-do item is to make sure Sun's Java is installed and pointed-to, rather than th Open JDK that Ubuntu ships with by default.

Subject: Ubuntu/Hadoop incompatibilities?

Hi.

I have seen two articles (tutorials) on the Internet saying that Hadoop is incompatible with Ubuntu. Now I also have problems making Hadoop work and I start to believe those two articles.

Anybody can confirm that has successfully installed Hadoop on Ubuntu?

Thanks
