1) Install

http://labs.renren.com/apache-mirror/cassandra/0.7.6-2/apache-cassandra-0.7.6-2-bin.tar.gz(apache官网推荐人人的mirror，不过link有问题 ^_^)

  * tar -zxvf apache-cassandra-$VERSION.tar.gz
  * cd apache-cassandra-$VERSION
  * sudo mkdir -p /var/log/cassandra
  * sudo chown -R `whoami` /var/log/cassandra
  * sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/cassandra
  * sudo chown -R `whoami` /var/lib/cassandra

Note: The sample configuration files in conf/ determine the file-system
locations Cassandra uses for logging and data storage. You are free to
change these to suit your own environment and adjust the path names
used here accordingly.

Now that we’re ready, let’s start it up!
#start up front
  * bin/cassandra -f

2) two nodes configuration:
node1:192.168.46.155

the same as node2,just need change
