gdisplay: Couldn't query volume group "/dev/vg00".
Possible error in the Volume Group minor number; Please check and make sure the group minor number is unique.
vgdisplay: Cannot display volume group "/dev/vg00".

It is problem lvmtab file. Try to remove this old / move to some other file and vgexport it. Now vgdisplay will work.
