Several weeks ago I installed Ubuntu alongside Windows 10. Yesterday when starting my laptop I saw:
error: unknown filesystem.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>
I booted from USB stick and did grub repair as written in this manual:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
Boot-Repair Boot Info Summary: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26476661/
After repairing grub, I rebooted my PC and no options for choosing the OS were given, but Windows automatically started and did a long update!
Rebooting again, only Windows was starting (even if I hold the left Shift key).
Booting from USB and typing in the terminal sudo fdisk -l
:

Don't know how you would boot back into that though - sorry (it may be as simple as selecting /dev/sdb2 as the boot device from BIOS).

Based on your boot info summary, it looks to me like you created a "bootable" live system on a VFAT partition at /dev/sdb1 (i.e. treated the partition as though it were a USB stick). Don't know how you would boot back into that though - sorry (it may be as simple as selecting /dev/sdb2 as the boot device from BIOS).
