Disk label type DoS and NTFS? I bet if you could reformat those<br>

sdb is formatted as ext4. Not sure why fdisk shows [NTFS].<span class=""><br>

Also, the NTFS drive is not causing the issue. It is the ext4 drive.<br>

The partition table has a "partition type" byte in it, and the partition table on sdb has sdb1 as 0x07 (NTFS). The filesystem on sdb1 is ext4. Most Linux utilities don't pay any attention to the "partition type" byte. Your machine's BIOS, however, might. BIOSes have very small brains, and "partition type NTFS but the filesystem isn't NTFS" may be confusing it. If I were you, I'd use fdisk to change sdb1 to type 0x83 (Linux) and see if that helps.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
