rpm -q kernel

This will list all the kernel packages you have installed. Presuming
that you have indeed booted an older F16 kernel, after running

rpm -e kernel-<version>-<release>

naming the specific F17 kernel package that croaks when you try to boot,
this should remove it.

After which you should be able to yum update to the most recent kernel
package, and any other packages that need to be updated.

You can also run this if you prefer:

yum list installed kernel

yum remove kernel-FOO.fc17

Unless you're using something like kmod-nvidia that's kernel-version specific there's no real difference. If you are, yum will clean this up as well.
