I have dual boot machine (Ubuntu 16.04 + Windows 10). Today I was mounting a flash disk then I executed the command fdisk -l but I saw something weird.

Device Start End Sectors Size Type

/dev/nvme0n1p1      2048     923647    921600  450M Windows recovery environment
/dev/nvme0n1p2    923648    1128447    204800  100M EFI System
/dev/nvme0n1p3   1128448    1161215     32768   16M Microsoft reserved
/dev/nvme0n1p4   1161864  106029703 104867840   50G Microsoft basic data
/dev/nvme0n1p5 106031104  944902143 838871040  400G Microsoft basic data
/dev/nvme0n1p6 944902144  991815679  46913536 22.4G Microsoft basic data
/dev/nvme0n1p7 991815680 1000212479   8396800    4G Microsoft basic data

Why it say that the "nvme0n1p6" is Microsoft basic data although it's Ext4? Also the "nvme0n1p6" show the same although it's SWAP.

Also nvme0n1p5 and nvme0n1p4 should be NTFS, why it is saying Microsoft basic data?

Is it normal that are some disks doesn't start exactly the next sector of the previous one?
