Yes. I'm mostly working on the netinst isos, and right now if you take 
that and dd it onto a USB stick, then insert that and hold down alt on 
boot, you'll get a Mac install. Unfortunately, alpha ended up getting 
built with a grub that dies on any Macs that don't have built-in 
ethernet, so you may have some problems with that. The alpha kernel also 
has a bug that seems to trigger on Macs that results in incredible 
slowness. But other than that! Fixed kernel is in the archive now, and 
I've just commited a fix for the grub bug.
