I did it a little different. Do these as root (or su).
Download firefox-2.0.0.2.tar.gz from www.mozilla.com.
Create /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.2 directory and extract the tarball there.
Copy any extensions you have in /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.9/extensions to /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.2/extensions.
Change two lines in /usr/bin/firefox:
if [ -x "/usr/lib64/firefox-1.5.0.9/firefox-bin" ] to if [ -x "/usr/lib64/firefox-2.0.0.1/firefox-bin" ]
MOZ_DIST_BIN="$MOZ_LIB_DIR/firefox-1.5.0.9″ to MOZ_DIST_BIN="$MOZ_LIB_DIR/firefox-2.0.0.1″
Now if something doesn't work for you you can just change /usr/bin/firefox back to point to the 1.5.0.9 directory.
