Hi,

I don't know what you downloaded, but it does not seem to be the right
thing.

You will need to check out the Git repository. How to do that is shown
over here:

  http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/development/git

Ignore the IPFire 3 stuff. After that, you will need to do what is
described in the build howto:

  http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/development/build

Apart from that, there is also this:

Good luck,
-Michael
