admin on "/" unable to find media

hi,
so far, using mod_python, i have my location as
"/mysite/" and my 
admin mounted as:
http://mydomain.com
/mysite/admin/
no problems
I tried location as "/" and admin mounted as:
http://mydomain.com/admin/

admin comes up - but css is not found. On looking at the
page source 
of both it gives:
"/media/css/base.css/" in both examples, but in
the second example i 
get a 404 in the logs saying css not found. How to solve
this?

can i see your url.py, cause i had to take off the leading
'^' to be
able to recognize the admin part
at /mysite/admin.

(r'^admin/',
include('django.contrib.admin.urls.admin')),

This is because /media/css/base.css is part of <Location
"/"> and Apache 
feeds this url to Django instead of getting it from the
filesystem.

To exclude /media from mod_python controlled area use
another <Location>:

  Alias /media "/physical/path/to/admin/media/"
  <Location "/media/">
    SetHandler None
  </Location>
