This isn't possible, since FBReader only supports single-file HTML ebooks. If you have multiple related HTML files (e.g. book chapters) then you need to make an OEB ebook by adding a .opf file (which lists the HTML files among other things), zipping all the related files into one .zip and finally rename it .oebzip. Then links between HTML files in the OEB ebook will work. If you don't want to make an .oebzip, point FBReader to the .opf file for the same effect.

FBReader's ePub capability is a work in progress (it ignores the Table of Contents for example), but if you already have an internal TOC (or any base HTML file that eventually links to all the others) then Calibre on a Desktop PC (Windows, Mac, or Linux) is a good way to get from multiple HTMLs to an ebook. Use it to make an ePub by providing it with the base HTML file (via any2epub on the command line, or select ePub as your desired export target in the GUI).

Note that FBReader can follow external HTML links by invoking a web browser, this does not help on the DR1000S since it has no browser yet.
