Hey Amir,

The jiras you're looking for are:

HADOOP-6941. Support non-SUN JREs in UserGroupInformation
HADOOP-7211. Security uses proprietary Sun APIs

Also see http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HadoopJavaVersions

This needs to go in trunk as well as 20x.

Thanks,
Eli

I have been wanting to try hadoop on my PowerMac 8600 (now with g4!). :)

For starters, there are places (code/script) where os.name, os.arch and sun.arch.data.model are used.
Some are written with invalid assumptions. For one, JSVC_ARCH will be blindly set to i386 on ppc in bin/hadoop.

I suggest you file an umbrella jira and keep adding subtasks as you go.

Thanks,
Kihwal
