You should really consider purchasing the official CD and trying that
instead.
I certainly would, but the alpha install is not on the CD.
I next downloaded the 3.7 -release binaries to the drive and
replaced the kernel with the new kernel and tried to reboot. That
did not work and is where I am now.
I wouldn't try it like that. Refer to this part of the FAQ..

I got the exact same error when I tried those directions. I have
reinstalled 3.6 from CD (works fine). So at least I have a working
system. I'll then try this again and see what I can do about removing
the pci device that appears to be holding up the install. I had a
similar problem when I first tried to use 3.5, so I waited for 3.6.
Maybe I have better luck with the even numbers :).
