Checking that no-one is using this disk right now ... OK

Disk /dev/sdb: 489.1 GiB, 525112713216 bytes, 1025610768 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Created a new partition 1 of type 'W95 FAT32 (LBA)' and of size 500 MiB.
/dev/sdb2: Created a new partition 2 of type 'HPFS/NTFS/exFAT' and of 
size 488.6 GiB.
/dev/sdb3:
New situation:

Device     Boot   Start        End    Sectors   Size Id Type

The partition table has been altered.
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.

root@sysresccd /mnt % sfdisk -d /dev/sdb
label: dos
label-id: 0x1f257e1a

sfdisk from util-linux 2.28.2

As you see sfdisk creates different label-id than it has in file
