see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table#Partition_type_GUIDs

nota 9 :
Previously, Linux used the same GUID for the data partitions as Windows
(Basic data partition: EBD0A0A2-B9E5-4433-87C0-68B6B72699C7).
Linux never had a separate unique partition type GUID defined for its
data partitions.
This created problems when dual-booting Linux and Windows in UEFI-GPT
setup.
The new GUID (Linux filesystem data: 0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4)
was defined jointly by GPT fdisk and GNU Parted developers.
It is identified as type code 0x8300 in GPT fdisk.
(See definitions in gdisk's parttypes.cc)
