    Hey Denny, <br>
    <br>
    Type 4 is 16-bit FAT (up to 32M), I see there's some Microsoft
    partitions. Is the first partition perhaps an MBR that was installed
    along some previous Windows installation? I only ever see it when I
    installed Windows on my machine prior to Linux. Maybe you could do
    the following:<br>

    <font face="monospace" color="#000000">

                there seems to be a mismatch of sorts between your
