Hrm... I don't think it is possible to make a folder without putting files in there. However, you can create dummy text files in each of the folders you want, and then add an XML to the CAB to automatically delete the files after installing.

In WinCE CAB Manager there is an area to specify a Post-XML file (on the same window that you can rename your CAB file)

Here is an example of the code you would need to delete the file "initprov.lnk" in the folder "\Windows\startup\"

Code:
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
    <characteristic type="\Windows\startup\initprov.lnk"  translation="install">
        <characteristic type="Delete">
            <parm name="ForceDelete" />
        </characteristic>
    </characteristic>
