dhruba borthakur commented on HADOOP-5742:
------------------------------------------

The disk layout version is different from the release version. 

For code maintainability purposes, we should deprecate log versions that 
occured 5 release back seems like a good option. What log version was there for 
release 0.13?

> Remove intentionally corrupt 0.13 directory layout creation

> Given that 0.13 is incredibly old at this point, I think the likelihood of 
> anyone trying to start an 0.20+ namenode on an 0.13 directly layout is

> If no one objects, I'll submit a patch. If there are objections, I propose at 
> least adding a README explaining its purpose (same text as in the corrupt 
> fsimage file)
