[PyMOL] Residue numbering using fuse

Hi,

I'm trying to use PyMol to create a polysaccharide (or poly-anything) 
out of a disaccharide building block. The disaccharide consists of two 
residues with different residue names and residue numbers "1" and "2". 
When I use the "fuse" command in PyMol to fuse one disaccharide to 
another, two things happen which I'm hoping can be prevented with some 
kind of setting:
1.   The residue numbers of the polysaccharide are all "1" or "2", i.e. 
the residue numbers are 1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2....
2.   The atom names in the polysaccharide are not the same as in the 
disaccharide building block.

Is there a way to prevent this behaviour?
One possible solution to "1." is to renumber the residues afterwards. 
However I can't figure out how to do it since trying to select one of 
the residues in the polysaccharide results in PyMol selecting all 
residues with that residue name (since all residues have the same 
residue number)
