Yes, it was possible in F17. Now it isn't :) It's kind of improvement in
installer.

fedup is not touching anything in partition layout. (someone on devel@
group stated this recently) fedup downloads packages, new kernel and
"installation" initrd. Then it uses yum/rpm do upgrade OS. So it should
be possible to upgrade your machine.

This is the only chance to do what you want. I also wait with
upgrade/reinstall on some of my boxes because I can't play with
kickstart to learn how it works. I have no spare box to destroy for one
day. You can see content of kickstart-ks.cfg in /root directory of your
Fedora 17 install and use it for new installation.

I'm waiting for this feature to be available back in Fedora. For now I
don't have any good news for you. This kind of installation might be
only possible using kickstart. Please try Fedora 19, maybe it's
available again.
