new subversion user question

Hi. I'm trying to follow this document (very well done!),
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook/ch01s07.html
When you,
$ svn import /tmp/project file:///path/to/repos -m "initial import"

and all seems well, until I try,

$ svn checkout file:///path/to/repos/trunk project

because there is no "trunk project" in my path/to/repos. There's one in
my /tmp/project of course.

See,
[secretsvn@playpen110 lookHere]$ ls
conf dav db format hooks locks README.txt

Shouldn't there be a trunk? The way the command looks I think it should
be in the path/to/repos now. What am I not understanding? Thanks for
any tips, links, ect.
