Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-259:
----------------------------------

Thanks for the feedback, Konst. I will add some code to check for an old 
version and explain that they must upgrade to 0.20 first as a stepping stone, 
if you think it's necessary.

I also realized there are some tests that need a little update. I'll upload a 
new patch with these changes in the next couple days.

> 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 
> essentially nil. The intentionally-corrupt "${dfs.name.dir}/image/" directory 
> just serves to confuse new users at this point, so I propose removing it.
> 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)
