You have a namenode, a jobtracker, and a single datanode and tasktracker running. You can verify with "jps" command. The default setting is that a tasktracker can run up to two map and reduce tasks in parallel (mapred.tasktracker.map.tasks.maximum and mapred.tasktracker.reduce.tasks.maximum), so you will actually see some concurrency on your one machine.
