Flagged as boot can just mean it's an msdos-MBR partitioning scheme not necessarily a mistake for a spare drive. If I understand you correctly, which is not easy to do from the information you provide, this is an extra data drive, and not the drive where the / fs of the OS is mounted. My head hurts reading this question, but how you installed the system is probably the issue. Did you encrypt your home partition? Are you running secure boot with a dual boot? Did you select a specific place to install grub other than SDA? Is this a UEFI-GUID disk install or Msdos-MBR? Were both drives listed by the installer when you installed? Is this a two disk setup, or multiple partition? Do the disks have different formats i/e /fs on ext4 and data-vfat on the other? If it's two disks: Yes "/'" root of the OS can own the data drive. Change the permissions. Crap, my crystal ball just clouded over.
