Yeah, it's probably because your local copy has some things named 
differently than Cobbler would normally expect.
It expects to see x86/ or x86_64 actually in a path segment.

The names will likely be weird, but if you do the following, you can 
import both arches in one swoop and then rename the one that gets set
to the wrong arch.

cobbler import --name=RHEL4 --path=/mnt/os-install/exported/media/Linux


That assumes they are both under the same parent.
