Cedric, Hi,

For starters: http://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black this is
Roberts "build your own" guide.

This base image is around 75M in size for me without anything else
installed. WIth openssh-server, and ntpdate, I think around 91M size total.

As for the rest of your questions: I do not know personally. I do not use
QT, or an LCD. As I run headless, and have no interest in either for my own
purposes. Instead I use my own BBB as kind of a network appliance by using
Nodejs.
