Put (in ERT):
\renewcommand\thepage{\roman{page}}
\setcounter{page}{1}
where you want to start with the roman numbering (e.g. right before the toc),
and
\renewcommand\thepage{\arabic{page}}
\setcounter{page}{1}
where you want to start the arabic numbering. If you use
\begin{titlepage}
...stuff on your titlepage...
\end{titlepage}
the titlepage has no page number. I don't know if this works for all document
classes, though. I use report (koma-script) for my thesis.

There should be something like unsrt.bst, but you can also create your own
bibtex style with latex makebst.
Good luck!
