I haven't tried import yet:) You can also do 'svnadmin create PATH',
which will create an empty repository at PATH which you can then add
things to.

Try a -d argument to the co (it stands for destination dir). If no -d
is given it uses the last in the file:///... part, but in your case this
is not a versioned directory.

so

[sam_at_samth bar]$ ../svn co file:///home/sam/projects/svn-repos/test-repo-1/ -d wc

should work.
