Unfortunately, I was a bit tired and didn't keep track of the things I did so I couldn't restore it. So I reinstalled F16 and about to do preupgrade to F17 again because the F17 alpha would only give me bare minimal install. Haven't had the chance to burn a F17 beta DVD yet. OK here is the info on new upgraded system (UUID 1e8f3c02-9ccd-45f7-9060-68f4d0aea671 - ID of submitted system profile - of reinstalled F16 from DVD)...
