I'm a bit out of practice - haven't done much OSM stuff lately, but when you download the OSM mapnik things (to make the mapnik style file), it comes with a program called generate_tiles.py. You give it the bounding box of the area you are interested in, and the mapnik style file, and it creates the set of tiles - you can put these in a location where your web server can get to them and they will be served by apache.
I drew a picture of how it all fitted together in a presentation a while ago, because it is quite complicated as you have discovered! http://www.slideshare.net/jones139/rendering-openstreetmap-data-using-mapnik I started a wiki page to describe the different methods of making tiles once http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creating_your_own_tiles To get going I'd recommend just having a go with the generate_image.py and generate_tiles.py scripts to get something if you are not too interested in updating everything in real time etc. One thing to bear in mind though is that the method of creating the mapnik style file has changed since I used it - the default style is now once called 'carto', but once you have made the xml style file, generate_tiles.py and generate_image.py will work with it. I hope that helps. I'm afraid it is rather late in the uk so I have to go to bed, but if you need anything else drop me a line and I'll reply tomorrow. Regards Graham.
