Hrmmm...  Everything looks OK based on your output.

Did you create that partition (/dev/sda6) during installation, or after the
machine was set up?  If after the machine was set up, after you created the
partition using fdisk or whatever, did you run mkfs on the partition?  Can
you see /dev/sda5 OK?
