if you can post a mutual site that i can upload a jpg, i would be more
than happy to upload a shot of 'disk utility' showing;
sdb1 sdb2 sdb3 sdb6 sdb5
12 GB NTFS 2.1 GB Swap 11 GB ext4 32 GB ext4 23 GB ext4
In your case, "sdb5" appears to be listed in the logical partition table
before "sdb6", but describe an area that appears further into the disk.
That doesn't contradict what Robert wrote.
Indeed. Partitions 5 and 6 are _numbered_ consecutively, they just
aren't _arranged_ consecutively on the disk. Some tools will list
them in disk order, some in numerical order. A GUI tool that shows
a graphical map of the disk will, of course, be showing them in
disk order.
