Alas that README is a bit outdated.

Try
   (setq load-path (cons "/usr/local/lib/erlang_R9B-0/lib/tools-2.2/emacs"
      load-path))
      (setq erlang-root-dir "/usr/local/lib/erlang_R9B-0/")
      (setq exec-path (cons "/usr/local/lib/erlang_R9B-0/bin" exec-path))

The README has been updated for the coming release and there will be
a users guide and manual page too.
