When I create a Lost, they has the Psi-Trait and two disorders. On which level is the Psi Trait? I would assume it is Level 1 and when Ibuy level 2 of the Psi-trait, they get a 3rd disorder. Is this correct?

Losts and starting disorders
That's the best interpretation based on the text.
This is a big part of why I would like to see something stating outright what level psi trait the lost start with, not just leaving it to GM discretion...
Lunar Ego Hunter.
Level 2 Psi, 2x Mental Disorders.
The implication from the story in the book is that the reason the Lost snapped in the first place was because they were infected with the Exsurgent virus without the researcher's knowledge. If that's the case, then level 2 psi sounds perfectly reasonable, especially since they have likely had plenty of time to get to the 2nd stage of the Watts-Macleod strain.
Absent a post from a writer Admini seems correct. Absent Errata you have to assume that the "Sample characters" follow the character creation process.
So level two psi, 2 disorders.
Personally I'd prefer if it were level 1 with 2 because
1. It seems like Lost would be significantly crazier than normal people.
2. It allows a Lost to have less psi (and less uber-jedi-mind-powers is a good thing in my book).
