replace ext4 with your FS type if it's not so

With respect to the marked as answer post:

Not correct uname -a return all not just kernel version also lsb_release -a return all not only Ubuntu version moreover sudo fdisk -l return the block numbers and size and not human readable information

Solution 5:

Open terminal. Just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command below.

sudo fdisk -l; uname -a; lsb_release -a
