For Reproducible Builds testing of armhf packages I run several machines (some physical, some virtual) with arm64 kernel and armhf userland, and it basically works. It is a little tricky to set up multi-arch to be able to get the linux-image-arm64 kernel from arm64 without pulling in all the recommends on various :arm64 packages, but once it is set up, it works fine... I have no idea how difficult it would be to add multi-arch support to debian-installer, but it is not too hard to build an image using "mmdebstrap" that supports a linux-image-arm64:arm64 kernel on an armhf userland. live well, vagrant
