I know. I havent installed Proxmox or Pimox yet, though. I am having trouble INSTALLING the package itself. I edited the Pi's name myself.
A 64-bit x86 processor is required for official Proxmox VE. You cannot install Proxmox from the official Proxmox repositories on a Pi.

deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription
You need to use something else instead of the above. Maybe people who use or maintain PiMox can tell you what repository to use for a Pi with Debian 12.

Code:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ bookworm-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription
You are also mixing bullseye (Proxmox 7.x) and bookworm (Debian 12.x), which won't work. Only Proxmox 8.x works with Debian 12/bookworm. Proxmox 7.x (which only works with Debian 11/bullseye) is out of support.

EDIT: I found this guide that might help you: https://raspberrytips.com/proxmox-on-raspberry-pi/
