There was a common bug where upgrades from f16 would boot the f16 kernel.  That had a mismatch in the initramfs from what the f17 userspace was expecting, which would result in a kernel panic.  Booting an f17 kernel should work just fine.

I'm going to mark this as a duplicate of that bug based on the little information we have here.  If you are still seeing this with one of the 3.4.x F17 kernel updates, please reopen.
