How can I deploy a custom (or unsupported distro) on Linode?

I would like to deploy Fedora 16, but Linode doesn't support it yet. Is it possible for me deploy it myself using the Fedora 16 DVD ISO image that I download from the Fedora website? How would I install it onto my Linode? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!!

There's a section in the Linode documentation on how to do this here:

Though I'm fairly confident that Linode will have Fedora 16 out soon - they generally do well at keeping up on distro releases.
