Yes, I'm. I did format it as stated above. It is USB boot disk, where the first
partition code (in gdisk) is EF02 and first partition is not formatted
at all, while
partition 2 is ext2 and part3 - etx4.

I'm not sure why you are referring to /dev/sda when the flash drive appears
to be /dev/sde.
I'm not referring to /dev/sda, it is a *linux warning message* which
is printed on a console.

Also, I'm not sure why you need NTFS unless a version of
Windows is installed somewhere, or you need to read an NTFS formatted
device.
I do not need NTFS.
I'll try to clarify my question: I don't want Linux to try mounting unformatted
EF02 partition as NTFS (which is a bad guess on linux part).
Is there any way to prevent that?

The only partition that is mounted during boot is the one specified on the linux command line with root=whatever. Later, the only partitions mounted are those specified in /etc/fstab.

I suspect the output of 'NTFS signature is missing' is in the UEFI firmware.
