why in the world are you not doing the upgrade with yum?
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_16_-.3E_Fedora_17

  That very link leads straight to:

There is a general warning about upgrading via. yum being unsupported at
the top of this page. However Fedora 17 is very special. You should
seriously consider stopping now and just using anaconda via. DVD or
preupgrade, unlike all previous releases it's what the yum/rpm developers
recommend. Continue at your own risk.

Despite the reports every release of successful upgrades via yum, there seem to be just as many nay-sayers.

In particular, I was going 14 -> 16, which entailed adding systemd *and* grub2, neither of which I trusted yum to cope with.

  But then, the DVD didn't either, in the event  :-/
