It wants reference items between the <guide> and </guide>. They may be useful if you are uploading to Kindlegen where you can define the cover, TOC and start of reading location. Most epub reading systems disregard them.
Sample from content.opf in a book I was recently editing:
Code:
<guide>
<reference type="toc" title="Table of Contents" href="Text/part0001.xhtml"/>
<reference type="text" title="Beginning" href="Text/part0004.xhtml"/>
<reference type="cover" title="Cover" href="Text/titlepage.xhtml"/>
</guide>
Personally, the few times that error has come up, I've simply copied/pasted the above lines and then edited the hrefs. It's easier for me than right-clicking on multiple files and adding the appropriate semantic.
Edit: If you are feeling really bored, here's the link to the Epub 2.0.1 spec item:
Section 2.6: Guide
