You should keep the same directory tree in your embedded system as on your desktop machine.
What I have done when working on an embedded system is to cross-compile Qt on my desktop machine, install it then copy the lib & plugin directory in the same folder on the target (I know there are other ways i.e using rpath).
For example:
build Qt-4.6.3 for embedded linux result in a directory tree that is in /usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.6.3-arm/
I recreate the same directory on the target root filesystem then copy only the lib and plugin subdirectory.

Hope this helps
