What is the URL of the ISO image you downloaded?
The images that will give the best results for alpha are currently the
sid_d-i images, located at
<http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sid_d-i/alpha/current/>.
Please note that you will also need to manually edit your partition table
on your boot drive to leave space at the front of the disk for aboot to
install to, as this is not yet handled automatically for you.
