Deploy Hadoop to PC Classroom using DRBL

• java is required for Hadoop, so you need to install java runtime or jdk first.

  ~$ echo "deb http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian/ etch non-free" > /tmp/etch-non-free.list
  ~$ sudo mv /tmp/etch-non-free.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/.
  ~$ sudo apt-get update
  ~$ sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk
  

• download Hadoop 0.18.2

  ~$ wget http://ftp.twaren.net/Unix/Web/apache/hadoop/core/hadoop-0.18.2/hadoop-0.18.2.tar.gz
  ~$ tar zxvf hadoop-0.18.2.tar.gz
  

• setup JAVA_HOME environment variable

  ~$ echo "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun" >> ~/.bash_profile
  ~$ source ~/.bash_profile
  

• edit hadoop-0.18.2/conf/hadoop-env.sh

  hadoop-0.18.2/conf/hadoop-env.sh
