Maybe you should do step 4 (disable selinux) before step 3...? Also: "Only experienced Red Hat/Fedora Core users should attempt this, as the upgrade process may cause problems. Theoretically, you should be able to upgrade from any Red Hat Linux/Fedora Core release to any Red Hat Linux/Fedora Core release with a yum-compatible repository (i.e. containing yum "header" files). " Theoretically... The difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no difference between theory and practice ;) Is there a reason you are updating this way instead of doing a "linux upgradeany" at the install point, or just backing up home and doing a clean install?
