Hello, I've been trying to get Hadoop up and running on a Windows Desktop running Windows XP. I've installed Cygwin and Hadoop. I run the start-all.sh script, it starts the namenode, but does not seem to start the datanode. I found that if I run hadoop datanode then, the datanode starts. When I run the bin/hadoop jar hadoop-*-examples.jar grep input output 'dfs[a-z.]+' it seems to start doing something, I get status showing that 0% has completed, but the job tracker does show a job scheduled and waiting. Any ideas as to where I should start looking to determine what might be wrong? Thanks.
