This is what I used with cobbler 2.2.2 on rhel 6.2: cobbler import --path=/srv/www/repos.server/mirrors/SL/6.2/x86_64/os --breed=redhat --name=SL-6.2-x86_64 --available-as=http://repos.server/mirrors/SL/6.2/x86_64/os where cobbler was running on the same machine serving up the distro via http. It did seem odd to me at the time that to get it to work I had to use --path.
