    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.
