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
