[SOLVED] Is a chrooted installation possible from an existent Linux?

Hi!
I digged around a bit but what i understood is that a "live" Arch distro has to be used mandatory to install the system on a partition.
What i need is to install Arch in a chrooted environment having a shell opened for that job on my actual running distribution. I just did it with Gentoo and its "stage3*.tar.bz2" base system.
Any suggestion on how to do that for installing Arch?

Thanks a lot for any advice!
