yes, you can manually install Arch to an SD or hunt down one of the existing IMGs still out there, then just install xfsprogs or run 'sudo modprobe xfs' for XFS support. EXT4 should already be enabled by default.

have you encountered issues enabling either, already?

i would imagine so since support for the A64 has been added to the mainline kernel already.

yep, flashing that image will get you an arch install with mainline kernel. you'll just have to go through updating it once it's booted.
