Huh, the problem is that I still do not own Garmin (it will arrive ~7 days) and MapSource installer does not work without previous version (they provide only updates - bloody proprietary apps) Oliver> Thus after you selected the *tdb file, you have to select the Oliver> *.img with the basemap.

The remaining question is whether it is possible to use mkgmap to create *.tdb file from the bunch of *.img files (which people provide at sites like http://www.osm4you.com/) to be loadable by Qlandkarte?
