Can you post a png of the beginning of part 2?  Perhaps
there's a missing indication of first and second endings for
the repeat?  Two partial measures in a row is highly
suspicious.  Don't forget that repeat signs are not
necessarily bar lines, and that they occasionally appear in
the middle of a measure, perhaps creating the illusion of a
partial measure.  An "incomplete" measure in the middle of a
score should be notated with a change in the time signature,
and, as far as I know, NEVER with \partial.  Perhaps it
would make more sense to use two \score blocks, one for each
part.

The link Marek provided will work, but may take a while to
load since it loads the whole Notation Reference.  Here's a
quicker link to the "split" version of the same section:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/long-repeats

Hopefully this will be enough to help you figure it out.
