"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.
