Hi,
I'm upgrading Fedoras by yum [1] for some time. I know that is not supported method and can have some problems. But the truth is that it was always less error prone as compared to upgrade using Anaconda or preupgrade. Even with upgrade from F16 to F17, which I originally thought would be impossible. But again "yum upgrade" was smoother than preupgrade.

As upgrading using yum require to have open wiki and follow steps written there, I decided to automate it and created script fedora-upgrade:

When run, it will upgrade your Fedora (currently only F17) to Fedora 18 using "yum upgrade". It is first shot, so it is definitely not intended for production systems. But you are very welcome to test it and report problems or just your ideas how to enhance it.
I intentionally left this script verbose, to help initial debugging.
