Thanks Erik! What confused me in the README is that it wasn't clear what files/directorys need to be in Solr home and what files/directories need to be in SolrHome/corename. For example the /conf and /data directories are now under the core subdirectory. What about /lib and /bin? Will a core use a conf file in SolrHome/conf if there is no Solrhome/collection1/conf directory?
Also when upgrading from a previous Solr setup that doesn't use a core, I was definitely confused about whether or not it is mandatory to have core with Solr 4.0. And when I tried not using a solr.xml file, it was very wierd to still get a message about a missing collection1 core directory.
