[root@small RPMS]# urpmi.addmedia 90Local 
file://local/mandrake/9.0/9.0-tree/contrib/RPM          S
medium "90Local" already exists
[root@small RPMS]#

but making it 90contrib worked.

How did you know my exact directory structure?    Good detective!

Aside:

At least the error message got the right grammar.

The urpmi man page is unintelligible:  "medium" is the singular, "media" 
is the plural, "medias" is not a word and carries no meaning at all!
