Question then would be, can I do a yum upgrade to go from F16 to F17 or F18 if things aren't fixed for F17?
Might work. Not tested. What you're after is preupgrade. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading
Thanks, Chris.
I know about preupgrade. What I'm actually concerned about is whether there is any incompatibility between those releases that would prevent upgrading. Like what happened a while back where you couldn't upgrade between certain releases.
There were no stable releases that you couldn't upgrade using Anaconda or PreUpgrade. For this release, it hasn't reached beta yet and we need testers to test the upgrade process and report bugs but whatever issues are well known are documented in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F17_bugs

Maybe it was the signing key thing I remember that messed up some upgrades.
Anyway, once the nouveau driver gets fixed for nv3/nv4 cards then I can test the upgrade process.
