Roman Shaposhnik commented on BIGTOP-897:
-----------------------------------------

I think what would be ideal is to create an authoritative documentation as part 
of our website on Bigtop deployment and configuration. Wiki is a very nice 
place for collaboration, but it bitrots quickly enough to scare casual users 
away.

Anybody's willing to take a stab at more or less formal docs?

> Recently, I saw a user on hadoop user mailing list state that they got 404 
> error when going through the Bigtop instructions at 
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BIGTOP/How+to+install+Hadoop+distribution+from+Bigtop
> That made them question the reliability of the project. That's not good. 
> Perhaps, there are some outdated links there, perhaps it was a user error. In 
> any case, we should validate and improve this wiki page in particular (and 
> the wiki in general but that's not the goal of this JIRA) to be more workable 
> out of the box.
