Did you really remove parts of your running system and expect things to work as normal??? I don't believe this!
But... If you really did this, you have to reflash the firmware to get a working device.
Edit: Here is the wiki entry http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware

That's the main reason why consumer phones are unrooted. Because average people thinks that it's like any other USB/Media peripherals where you could delete all files and folders and your device is as good as new. The heck I even doubt they know what file system is.

What were you thinking? Oh, wait...

Ah well. Perhaps, before attempting to reflash, you could spend a couple of minutes studying this... It might help you in the future, not to remove the wheels from the car you are trying to drive, or placing the steering wheel in the trunk, just because you think your car looks better that way.

actually you can remove anything you can while plugging the device just like usb stick to the pc.

but removing stuff you don't know via sftp, I hope OP is a troll...
