Nope. You can do it by hand.

Basically the Fedora installer is a mess. It's been going
downhill for
years and it just gets worse each release. Unfortunately with FC17 you
can't really avoid using it due to the giant re-arrangement of /bin
and /usr/bin
not really

this works, expect that after the upgrade "revott" leads into
a kernel panic and you should do "sync; sync; sync" before
which will be funny on some remote amchines needing a person
to restart the machine hard
this is the same mess as the upgrade to F15 killed "reboot"
as long as you do not know about "kill 1" is working
after reboot my first test VM was upgraded from F16->F17 with YUM
never touch anaconda if there is any other way because it is the
most broken part of fedora including the preupgrade-incarnation
