"if they can manage to install" should say "if they can manage to boot the installer". I of course haven't tried that, but I believe they will not even be able to boot the Release installer. The instructions you put require a bootable kernel from the Release installer.
In order to install, someone would have to download the beta Feisty release with 2.6.20-12 or earlier and update everything but the kernel. At my office we are all using Mac Pros and plan on having all of them triple boot. Right now, I am the only one triple booting. The rest are waiting on the full release of Feisty. As of a few months ago, Feisty was the only distribution that worked remotely well on a Mac Pro. This will help Ubuntu gain quite a bit of market share. This issue will affect all Mac Pro and some Acer users. For this reason, I urge you to reconsider this decision. -- Kernel 2.6.20-13 acpi bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96480 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
