From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

A drive label is just a string that can be set by any privileged process. Seems like this installation of the new distro didn't do that. Or you skipped a step in the install where you could have chosen the drive label.
If it is a bug in the installer or if you missed it, I can't tell.
But you can just change it in gparted or something else.
Yes,
It should not affect the working of the disk as UUID is used for identification of the disk for booting OS.
Alright thanks, was just a little worried. But changed the label and all is good 👍
How did you install nixos? The labels for disks and partitions are usually set during creation.
If the KDE-spin installer did not need to reformat the disks (i.e. the partition sizes and formats didn’t change) it probably didn’t touch the partition labels.
You can change the label if it bothers you, just make sure fstab doesn’t use the old label :)
Happy hopping!
Cool project, have to try it!
It's pretty solid so far, can recommend 😊
