make sure you dont miss this step below

The reference root filesystem includes some binary modules that can be
downloaded separately. These packages are not necessary, you may create
a root filesystem without them, but some functionality will be missing.
To download these packages, please follow this link
<http://maemo.org/downloads/d2.php>.

http://maemo.org/downloads/d2.php

If you have successfuly downloaded those packages, then create a
workarounds/ directory under your rootfs working directory and copy the
binary packages there.
