now ubuntu want sdb6 mounted it

code:

mount /dev/sdb6 /mnt/hd

here problem. guide says check mount using mount | tail -l , should output

code:

/dev/sda2 on /media/0d104aff-ec8c-44c8-b811-92b993823444 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=devkit)

this output

code:

/dev/loop0 on /rofs type squashfs (ro,noatime) none on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw) none on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw) none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) none on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755) none on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) gvfs-fuse-daemon on /home/ubuntu/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=ubuntu) /dev/sdb6 on /mnt/hd type ext4 (rw)

what line supposed use? says need volumes uuid later output looks nothing guides.

you've mounted partition on /mnt, that's why don't see under /media.

better guide reinstall grub2 this.
