The Spherical Cow lands with MATE and Eucalyptus...
After being postponed seven times over two months, one of the strongest Linux operating systems - Fedora - has released its latest version -- Fedora 18, or the Spherical Cow. The biggest attraction about the release probably that it's finally out. Unlike the six months that it usually takes, the release has taken about eight, and kept fans on tenterhooks for the longest period. ....... http://goo.gl/nSg5t

yum preupgrade
If you are using Fedora 17, I would discourage you from using preupgrade. It has a lot of errors that can leave your system botched. Update using FedUp sh-4.2$ yum search FedUp Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, presto, priorities, refresh-packagekit Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * fedora: linux.mirrors.es.net * livna: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de * rpmfusion-free: mirror01.th.ifl.net * rpmfusion-free-updates: mirror01.th.ifl.net * rpmfusion-nonfree: mirror01.th.ifl.net * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates: mirror01.th.ifl.net * updates: virror.hanoilug.org ============================================================ N/S Matched: FedUp ============================================================ fedup.noarch : The Fedora Upgrade tool fedup-dracut.i686 : initramfs environment for system upgrades fedup-dracut-plymouth.noarch : plymouth theme for system upgrade progress Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything. sh-4.2$ Or better still, do a clean install.

Yeah, tried preupgrade, and then found out that "preupgrade isn't available as an option to upgrade to Fedora 18 and will never be available". Looks like someone was fed up here. Got fedup and in the process....
