This worked for me on a NetBSD/i386 4.99.26 system:

- boot a kernel with RAIDframe support from a device other than the
  one containing the RAID set you want to rename (I used the NetBSD
  installation CD-ROM)
- start a shell ;-)
- $ raidctl -G raid1 >/tmp/raid0.conf
- $ raidctl -u raid1
- $ raidctl -c /tmp/raid0.conf raid0
- $ raidctl -u raid0
- reboot
