Well, I tried it and ran into several obstacles. First, livemedia- creator in no-virt mode can't cross-install from x86 to ARM. Second, livemedia-creator in virt mode needs an install ISO, but there is no ISO for armfph and livemedia-creator can't find the kernel on the aarch64 media. Third, I tried running livemedia-creator on an aarch64 VM, but it's not as easy as it should be, and I don't have a successful image yet. My next attempt will be to try virt-install to create a VM image and then copy the image to an sd card. Failing that, I'll learn how to boot the RPi from a USB drive and use that to install to the sd card.
