Is there a good online tutorial for Hadoop development on a Windows 7 machine

Question

I've been following a Hadoop tutorial, which worked great for getting a virtual machine environment set up (Module 3 of the tutorial). But now I'm getting stumped by the HDFS section (Module 2) and think it might be easier if I had a Windows-specific tutorial.

I tried following another one, but some of the steps weren't quite right. I've been trying to find a good tutorial that will work for me on my Windows 7 machine, but am a bit stuck.

Is there a good place to go for this? Hadoop seems to be very geared toward Linux users, and unfortunately, I have to use my work laptop, which is Windows 7. Can I make this work or does it really only work for Linux users?

I would suggest you go through this link for a step by step Installation of Hadoop on your system. It has all the steps required. From Downloading VM to Installing Hadoop, this way you can learn in-depth How it works.
If you want to learn Hadoop I would suggest you can refer to YouTube Playlist.
