You could set up the links manually, look at the scripts inside extrootfs and enter the commands manually. Though I think you would have the same problem as per mmc-unionfs shutting down and umount the MMC card if /home is mounted on the card, see previous page of this thread or http://www.heike-zimmerer.de/software/mmc-unionfs.html
