New set of logs attached from this point. cjwatson requested I try this first; 
it would be interesting to know if http://paste.ubuntu.com/128992/ fixes the 
problem when applied to /lib/partman/commit.d/30parted (you can apply it by 
just editing that file with nano before the partitioner starts)
FAILED TO HELP: 2009-03-09 / 02:48 AM UTC

Next, the following was used:
find the udevd process; kill it (yes, really; just make sure nothing else is 
happening); run 'UDEV_LOG=err udevd --debug >udev.log 2>&1'; run through 
partitioning as before; extract udev.log

Strangely enough, the error disappears using this process as follows:
1. boot to the Alternate cd
2. proceed through installation process to "Partition Disks"
3. switch to TTY2 using Ctrl+Alt+F2
4. ran 'ps -A | more'; found one udevd process:
    680 Root  11352 S < udevd --daemon --resolve-names=server
5. run 'killall -9 udevd'
6. verified the udevd processes were killed.
7. run 'UDEV_LOG=err udevd --debug >udev.log 2>&1'
8. continue the installation process
9. It did not fail partitioning

I was so surprised, I ran this three times to be sure I did not make a
mistake. Logs are from the third run
