Doesnt matter. Createrepo doesnt care about the directory structure. That process works
for me on el 5/6/7 (el means enterprise linux and for us we use centos and rhel).
On the client side do a 'yum clean expire-cache'. Then either do a 'yum
repolist' to list number of packages or 'yum search <package>' for any
new packages added from your 2nd cd.

The file layout of RH 5 is different than 6. I tried that, but I am not sure it worked.
