I have installed a Debian Appliance on my Proxmox.
I didn't had watch out for the Architecture, but now i see, its i686, (means 32bit???) instead of 64bit.

Is there a reason, why this Appliance is the default one, i got, if i load debian6 Template via Proxmox?
Is there a way to switch my i686 installation to a new 64bit vm of same debian version?

I have 12 GB RAM on the system. Normaly this must be a 64bit system, cause 32bit only support 4GB RAM, right?!
