pacstrap arm from x86
Is it possible to pacstrap a arm installation from an x86 machine ?
The pacstrap --help does not provide much info ?

No - there are no arm architecture packages in the archlinux repos.
There are archlinuxarm repos, but that is a different distro, so you'd have to ask on their forums. In principle I don't see why this couldn't work, but that is not how archlinuxarm recommends installing.

I'd guess there would be issues... pacman will chroot into your install directory to run any package scriptlets. That will fail.
