Remember to always use devel-su -s /bin/develsh when you want to go root - otherwise you often actually lose capabilities from before you switched to root.
Also, as was already said, the MyDocs folder is on a FAT32 partition, which doesn't support users/groups/permissions at all, so you need to move your files to somewhere else (e.g. /home/user) instead. However, I haven't been able to run dpkg -b successfully anyway, so if that's what you're trying to do it probably isn't going to work.

However, that's a lot more complicated of course - I don't think there's a good solution for making "quick and dirty" .debs.

(On the other hand, there's a lot of half-baked .debs for Maemo - it's probably a good thing if people start using the more official tools in order to make high quality .debs)
