It could be that (1) it’s not called that way, or (2) additional kernel
modules need to be loaded so that the device is visible.

For (1), you could try using a partition label rather than the actual
device name in the ‘file-system’ declaration.

For (2), you could check in the kernel log whether sdb is detected.
