I made a recovery drive and noted that the extra space is available for
other uses so I now use it for back up. I mount sdb4 but eventually something
mounts sdb0. It may not hurt anything but how does this happen?


 sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb

The last mount messages are about sdb4 but then it says something about the joliet system on 1,
