The problem is, I think, dead simple. You've misunderstood "\partial", and you shouldn't be using it.
What partial does is "rewind" the clock back, which isn't at all what you think it's doing. What you're trying to tell lilypond is that your last bar consists of beats 1 & 2. What you've actually told lilypond is that your last "note", R2, is on the last beat (2/2) of the previous bar.
