Install Hadoop on windows 7

Hadoop distribution is not available for windows so we have to tweak few things to get our work done.

Moreover this was more on personal learning so we don't have luxury to have multiple machines, so we'll have single node cluster (not fair to call it cluster though)

If everything goes fine which is not always that straight though, we should see below ui successfully  which would be like aaha moment !!

Name Node UI once successfully installed





Prerequisite :

Eclipse 3.3.2 Europa 
Hadoop 0.19.1 
Jdk 1.6 
Cygwin
Dell Latitude Win 7 i586, 2 GB
.sh file editor like EditRocket

Please note lot of people facing problems in different versions (Europa/Hadoop etc), above combination is tested successfully, so if you are like one of those who want to test latest, do it @ your own risk.
