I will look at the README and fix it.

media is a newer feature of createrepo which is used to determine what
media a rpm is on. I guess it is not really needed for a dvd image as
there is only 1 media. But it is needed for the cd images. In this first
SL5 release I took the cd images and made a dvd out of it. I will
research if I can do this differently in the future.
