The system VM template is now based on Debian 13 (trixie) instead of Debian 12. The built-in CentOS 5.5 template used in the quick install guide and the installation guide is replaced by the Debian 13 (64-bit) genericcloud template for KVM.
The System VM templates for 24.0 are published under systemvm/24/. The aarch64 KVM template is not published there yet, so its URL still points to the 4.22.0 template.
Describe the built-in Debian 13 templates for KVM, XenServer and VMware: the template names, the guest agent of each hypervisor, cloud-init datasources, the default user, the root login and password reset.
