No, the installation kernels cannot do this, as they have do not have 
DDB (I would guess). I've only tried doing this with the 2.0 GENERIC 
kernel, which works well.
If you wish to use the workaround to run 2.0 you could perhaps just 
build from source or download the binary sets and install manually.
