Running Linux installed by this method on a (2008) Mac right now. Have done the same on recent (2012, 2013) models, too.

Macs have been using EFI boot for a few years, so the problem most have probably faced is trying to boot in BIOS emulation mode (which I've found to be iffy on pretty much every EFI motherboard I've come across).

Arch Linux has particularly good support. :P
