You probably got a false negative. M. luteus should be oxidase +. To determine M. luteus do a MSA plate which should not produce acid and barley grow.
The volume name, or label, is a name you can assign to each drive on your system. The conversion (and some other utilities) will ask you for it as a way to confirm that you're really asking them to operate on the drive you think you are. We'll look at how to see, and set, the volume name on your drives.
It turns out that renaming the volume group that hold the logical volume the root file system is on is not as complex as I had previously thought. Comments from Brian suggest that there is no need to recreate the initramfs and that it can be done without booting into rescue mode.rom this article you referenced: http://technoconfessions.blogspot.co.uk/2010/05/renaming-volume-group-that-your-root.html. I donât know exactly why he did that. Neither your hostname nor the vg name are typically referenced in your initramfs name.
