can you reproduce it with GRUB2 EFI on Mac?
(I don't recommend using "+mac" iso's, use normals)
Format pendrive to FAT32 -> copy all files from the iso there(remember the hidden .disk folder) -> hold ALT and select your pendrive on list, thats it, you can install with native EFI boot ;)

TEST CASE:
http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/AlternateEncryptedLvm
I'm using kubuntu-alternate-amd64+mac.iso from 2011-03-29.1 on a
MacBookPro6.2
The installation runs as expected. No errors are reported. After
rebooting, grub does not load. It's not that grub does not load linux,
but rather that the hardware never passes control to the grub menu. It
stays at the grey mac boot screen, as if there were no operating
systems. Holding 'Alt' during boot, which is the standard way to boot
when only Linux is installed on the Mac, offers no partition to boot.
Installing the same system in the same manner without an encrypted LVM
works fine. I did not test installing an unencrypted LVM.
