I wasn't able to access /var/log/installer/syslog, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/partman

This was being installed on an empty 1GB hard drive from a live CD. The demo loaded and worked fine.

I will attach the screen shot of above. (didn't know I could do this but now I see the option).

Thanks for your report. I'm afraid that one of your partitions seems to be too small to complete an Ubuntu desktop installation successfully. Bug 48355 notes that the partitioner should have warned you about this. This is fixed in 6.06.1.
