 You can convert an astlinux-XX.img file to a [[http://www.proxmox.com/downloads|Proxmox VE]] .qcow2 file and have a bootable system with a few simple steps.

-I tested this with Proxmox VE 3.1 on a real machine, it doesn't work if you install Proxmox VE in another Virtual Machine (like VirtualBox) :-).
+!!Note ->!! Testing was performed using Proxmox VE 3.1 on bare metal ((you need a 64bit CPU with VT-x or it will be really slow!)).  Your mileage may vary testing Proxmox within another VM, for example VMware appears to work for evaluation purposes, but VirtualBox may have issues with the network bridge interface.
