start-dfs.sh datanode fails in Single node mode - hadoop

Question

I launched the script start-dfs.sh to start hdfs, but it doesn't run datanode (the namenode is runnimg and I can create folders correctly). So when I try to put data in the hdfs, I got the following error:
hdfs dfs -put history25 /mydata
16/03/05 20:42:29 WARN util.NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable

Thank you for you help

Start the namenode bin/hadoop namenode. Check for errors, if any.
Start the datanodes bin/hadoop datanode. Check for errors, if any.
Now start the task-tracker, job tracker using 'bin/start-mapred.sh'
