Ah... yum update ... changes the version right?

Yes, it is possible. For example, this page describes it:
http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/Upg..._with_yum.html

But it is not recommended. It is much better to use the regular installer, because it takes care of lots of things other than just update packages. I quote the YumUpgradeFaq:

Anaconda is just the name of the installer on the Fedora Core installation CDs. The easiest way is to burn the CDs for the newer version and use them just like you installed Fedora Core the first time. It has an "upgrade" option.

I don't know what to tell you, but after you start the installation and select language and stuff somewhere it should detect your older version and display this screen
