The ueN (axe based) devices were not quite up yet on this system when the renaming script was run. I've updated (on github) the script to wait for the requested devices to appear (with configurable timeout), as well as added notes regarding making sure the drivers for the devices you wish to rename are either compiled in, or loaded via loader.conf, such that we aren't dependent upon devd to do so. I'd love some feedback on the script if anyone else has a use case for it / wants to kick the tires, and then I'll file a PR to add to ports. - Eric
