You might need to mount it.
# mkdir /mnt/debian
# mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/debian
# cd /mnt/debian
# tar xjvf easydebian.tar.bz2
the mmcblk1p1 part may differ, might be mmcblk0p1 or mmcblk1p2 I couldn't tell you without knowing your setup.
GParted might help, give you an idea of your partitioning structure.
