The only command that I know of that can delete a partition mapping
like this is partx.  On mine partx is not in the initrd so it should
not be happening there.

So:
cd /usr/sbin
mv partx partx.exe
then create a file:

#!/bin/bash
logger "$(/usr/bin/date) kartx run with options $*"
/usr/sbin/partx.exe $*

Test with running "partx --help" and make sure a message shows up in
messages file from the logger command.

If that finds something doing the delete then add a "ps -elf >
somefile" to the script before you execute partx.exe

I have had to use this trick a number of times to figure out what code
path was doing something odd.

You might also run "dmsetup table" and see what is referencing device
8:X (sda is :0, sda1: 1 and so on).
