Why does the error show during boot-repair? FYI: My external HDD size 4TiB.
ERROR: unsupported sector size 4096 on

IT's NOT EFI instead BIOS Bootable:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ efibootmgr
EFI variables are not supported on this system.
I have followed this article about BIOS-GPT Linux partioning process. The blogger confirms about possibilities of such installation in GPT Partitioned disk using BIOS based machine.
I have tried BIOS-GPT (option 1 and 3). None of those options worked to boot linux alongside with another OS (Win7) installed before in internal HDD.
The boot-repair tools gives the following result:
Both options shows:
