Hi,
the mysqld shutdowns because your mysqld can't connect to the cluster,
there is a 60 seconds timeout waiting for the cluster to start. I
recommend that you first start ndb_mgmd and the two(!) ndbd's. Then you
can start your mysqld's.
"BUG#3661 mysqld requires ndbcluster to be started" has previously been
filed for this problem, it will soon be pushed.

Remove the above DB node - according to Mikaels instruction.
You can still run a mysqld on computer 1, the ndb_mgmd will not require
much processing power.
