After you format /system you should install your Rom. You can't reboot cause you haven't installed a system on your phone.

Yes. Do not reboot after formatting system because your ROM is gone.

I always format system when changing ROMs, it is good practise to do so.

The benefit to formatting system before you install a new ROM isn't gaining space. Its clearing out system files that may interfere with the new ROM and make it not run as fast as it should, or make it unstable.
