I asked around on #sugar, and it seems you can in fact install Sugar on 
any Linux, with precompiled packages available for Ubuntu:

While it's not entirely streamlined, the whole process should be 
relatively painless, and I'm sure you will be able to get help on the 
relevant IRC channels (#sugar and #olpc on FreeNode) if you run into 
problems.

Cheers,
Maciej
