The "Linux" here is only a "tag". It does not mean that a file system
has been created!

It looks like you have not install GNU/Linux on your system. So just
putting grub will not do much! Of course, if you do
 mke2fs /dev/sdb1
the error message from grub will probably go away but it will not
solve your problem --- which we have to guess, since you have not
stated it.
