Step 1 is: mvn clean install -DskipTests

First of all = my OS tells me I need maven but it gives me two choices= , maven and maven 2.

Is there any pre-req info for Hadoop? I've previously = guessed I should installed open jdk 6. This time I guess maven 2. The resul= t of the 'clean install' is an error,

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
= [INFO] --------------------------------------------------------------------= ----
[INFO] Cannot execute mojo: clean. It requires a project with an ex= isting pom.xml, but the build is not using one.
:(

Looking ahead the next instruction is to CD into a folder that d= oes not exist on my machine,

cd hadoop-mapreduce-pro=
ject

A little after that the instructions note I must have install=
ed version 2.4.1 or greater. 2.4.1 of what?


I feel I am missing the point somewhere :(
