>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6841
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: documentation
>    Affects Versions: 0.20.2
>            Reporter: Steve McCarthy
>            Priority: Minor

> Ref:  http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r0.20.0/quickstart.html#Local
> Ref: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/QuickStart
> As a person new to Hadoop, I was walking through the Quick Start pages referenced above.  I got stuck on the first example and had to go digging through the scripts to figure out why it wasn't working for me.
> It turns out that I didn't have the HADOOP_HOME environment variable set.  It would have saved a lot of time if the instructions mentioned setting this variable.  
> Thanks.
