* Are the files *.list in config dir just the list returned by rpm -qa on the OS that has to become a VE?


Those files are the 'base' rpms you want to install
Yum will install these packages and it's dependencies

* Are the names of the different *.list files used as <os_name> when creating a new VE: vzctl create --ostemplate <os_name> ...?



/vz/template/$os/$ver/$arch/config/$xxxx.list
vzctl create 10001 --ostemplate $os-$ver-$arch-$xxxx

E.g.
/vz/template/cern/4/i386/config/minimal.list
vzctl create 10001 --ostemplate cern-4-i386-minimal

* Do I need a vz-addons dir? What is it used for?

Yes, you'll need the makedev, vzdev since it'll create your vps devices /dev/ (udev don't work inside a VE)
