OK - here I report what happened when I tried to
follow the instructions at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum
to perform a live upgrade.

0. ran all the steps specified on the URL.
1. running yum to do distro-sync failed to resolve
conflicts with several of the existing fc14 packages.
2. yum update failed for the same reason.

Conclusion: F16 Beta not ready for live upgrades and/or
                    I just have too many packages installed (more than 
4000).

So, I restored back from saved partition image
and rebooted back to F14.
