Hello,
I downloaded the latest stable hadoop release rfom the mirrors as a tarball: 
hadoop.2.2.0.tar.gz
Then extracted the files with Archive Manager (on Ubuntu 12.10)


There are no install docs in the top level and no documentation directory.

Then, the "Getting Started" links on http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/
led to 
http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/SingleCluster.html
that has the text 

"Assuming you have installed hadoop-common/hadoop-hdf" 
That seems like a strange assumption for a "Getting Started" document.
Perhaps the pointer leads to the wrong document?


Can someone say where to find the process for how to install from the 
downloaded stable release tarball?
