Why not follow the prescribed migration procedure?  http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/30-installation-migration-upgrade-vm-2/77-upgrading-vm1-to-vm2.html

So the update should be on top of the old VM1.1 site, and once done then you can copy over the database and image files to a new J2.5/VM2 site, replacing the 2.5 site's VM tables with the migrated ones from the 1.1 site (Use the "Remove Virtuemart Tables" tool to delete all the data from when you first set up the J2.5 site).
