Hi Sujit, 

I'd recommend you look at this tutorial on interacting with HDFS:
http://developer.yahoo.com/hadoop/tutorial/module2.html#interacting

When you create a folder '/foodir' in HDFS, that folder will be in the top 
level of HDFS. If you were to create a directory 'foodir' (without the '/'), 
that directory would go into your user's folder on HDFS - 
'/user/<username>/foodir.

You can view HDFS directory listings via:
~bin/hadoop dfs -lsr /
