Description

After hadoop installation using bigtop 0.3.0 deb package on ubuntu lucid, the /var/lib/hadoop/cache/hadoop/dfs directory wasn't created and I had to create it manually to get the namenode to start.. Dont see this directory being created in the hadoop postinstall script.. Maybe it is missing for hadoop 1.0x ?
