Shouldn't Daniel be booting to single user mode by adding a 1 or 3 or something to the grub boot line to enable him to boot from the hard drive in text mode to do the updates with yum?
yes, I did mention installing in text mode so you can see what's going on, but once that's done you would need to boot into runlevel 3 and update via yum or up2date.
to do that, when GRUB starts, just hit any key except enter and edit the boot command. append the number 3 to the end, and it should boot up into text mode.
