You will need to:

1. Cross compile the Qt library's to your target platform on a Linux
computer (EmbeddedToolkit is Linux only)
2. Cross compile you app and link against the Cross Compiled Qt libraries

#1 is your biggest challenge If you platform is not supported you will have
to port Qt to that platform. Trolltech has very good docs talking about this
on their web site. Go check them out for more details. Also the example in
the mkspecs will help you out. You might be able to use one of the examples
in there as a start.

2. Can I directly copy the application on  E6? if yes, how do i do the

No, See #1 above

Docs on Trolltech site should help you out for general porting.
