Actually, those instructions are for Hadoop 0.24, not 2.0.2-alpha.

0.24 is the developing version, 2.0.2 is the publication version.

0.23 or above is published as 2.0.x

Thanks for your response.  That's pretty vital information--I'm not used
to separate development/publication versions.  Is the 0.23-->2.0.2
renumbering stated anywhere on the Hadoop website or wiki?  It's very
confusing as people otherwise think there are three separate branches --
0.2x.y, 1.x, and 2.x when there are really just two.

Also the releases page: http://hadoop.apache.org/releases.html mentions
*both* 0.23.x and 2.0.2 releases -- wouldn't the former be numbered as
the latter, if as you're saying, 0.23 is published as 2.0.x?

Thanks,
Glen

Hi Glen

I agree with you. There are many versions and confusing. If you really want
to know, you can check the developing and publishing documents. In 0.23's
document, they must announced how many patches are included, as well as the
2.0.x.

Then you will exactly understand which one is which one.

OK, looking at the Hadoop branches:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/branches/ and tags:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/tags/, it's thankfully not
that bad.
There is no 0.24 in Hadoop, and the Maven pom files for the 2.0.2-alpha
branch indeed say 2.0.2-alpha.  The Cloudera article linked to below
mentions 0.24, but it's from 2011 and may have been at a time before the
Hadoop team decided to relabel to 2.0 instead.  Looking at this again:
http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.0.2-alpha/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/SingleCluster.html,
it appears to provide workable instructions, I'll try again with it.  
Thanks for your assistance.
