it was not necessary to do that. It should be enough just to specify a proper value in OSTEMPLATE 
opennebula VM template, e.g.
OSTEMPLATE="debian-7.0-x64"
In that case OpenVZ hypervisor should take into account /etc/vz/dists/debian.conf on the cloud node.

Please perform the following steps as oneadmin user on front-end node:
1) $ wget http://download.openvz.org/contrib/template/precreated/debian-7.0-amd64-minimal.tar.gz -P 
/tmp/

2) $ oneimage create --name "debian-7.0-amd64-minimal" --path /tmp/debian-7.0-amd64-minimal.tar.gz 
--prefix sd --description "Debian 7.0 x64 minimal"

3) Create VM template similar to one below:

CPU="0.01"
DISK=[
   IMAGE_ID="6",
   SIZE="20480" ]
DISK=[
   SIZE="2048",
   TYPE="swap" ]
LOOKUP_HOSTNAME="true"
MEMORY="2048"
NIC=[
   NETWORK_ID="2" ]
OS=[
   ARCH="x86_64",
   BOOT="sd" ]
OSTEMPLATE="debian-7.0-x64"
RCLOCAL="rc.local"
VCPU="1"
VE_LAYOUT="ploop"

4)
$ onetemplate instantiate <template id>

Please, report back on the result.

Nikolay.
