 Beginning with AstLinux 1.3.0, you can do an upgrade-switch to/from genx86_64 and genx86_64-vm.  This may be particularly useful with VMware installations that were originally deployed with the bare-metal genx86_64 (Video console) image, and with new features of AstLinux 1.3 you may want to switch to the VM-centric genx86_64-vm (Video console) image.
+For a practical matter, this only applies to VMware installations, either KVM / Xen / Hyper-V require the genx86_64-vm image and should never be switched to genx86_64.
