A closer look at this data turned out that I really selected my linux
partition to overwrite :-( [type 131, 18GB] so no problem here (besides
that ROS is unable to find its partition and boot from it).

It looks like the "unpartitioned space" corresponds to the W95 FAT32
partition I intended for ROS.
