I tried it.  It refuses to finish the booting process.
See bug report #617469 for details.

I verified the md5 checksum.  That's OK.
I verified the CD against the ISO when I burned it.  That's OK.

I've tried this CD (and the Netinst CD corresponding) and gotten the 
same results on different PowerMac machines.

It's probably because of the frame buffer problem that's been
discussed in bug #614221.

As a workaround, try: install video=ofonly.

Well, installing with that iso and using "video=ofonly" works a treat.
