All, I seem to have solved my problem.
In my hdfs.site.xml I had the following: <property> <name>dfs.name.dir</name> <value>file:///hdfs/name</ > > value> > </property> > <property> > <name>dfs.data.dir</name> > <value>file:///hdfs/data</value> > </property> The above worked on version 0.21.0, apparently not in 1.0. I changed them to /hdfs/name and /hdfs/data respecively and, well, at least my name node is running.
