Yes the installer sets the type of the id column in the pages table.
Go to the pages table in phpMyAdmin and click on the 'Structure' tab at the top.
On the id row, click the edit button (at the right under 'Action').
Change the 'Type' to varchar.
Set your desired maximum length (e.g. 250)
Make the 'Attributes' blank.
Deselect the auto_increment.
Click Save.
P.S. Note also that the RSS file, comments/rss.php, expects the Page ID in the URL to be a number.
P.S. Obviously you will need to re-write the Manage -> Pages page in the admin panel.
