I'm interested in this too...
My experience:
Installer runs like a breeze with OS9 Helper. You may need to boost the application component memories to get part 2 to run.
No luck getting airport 2.0.4 to run. I use orinoco 7.0x.
Filesharing via ethernet or airport seems to cause random freezes after the update when sharing with OSX.3.x. I have not yet tried a reinstall. It uses a bit more memory but seems to be faster other than the filesharing problem. That problem unfortunately is a dealbreaker and I'm probably going to drop back to 8.6 or 9.1 if I don't hear better reports vis-a-vis this thread.

Updating to 9.1 from 8.6 was a breeze, and I'm very pleased with the results so far. The machine runs its software set beautifully, plays well with its wireless LANmates, and so on. Airport 1.3.1 is still less than excellent though, and I wonder whether anyone has:
1. tried manually installing the parts to Airport 2.0.4 into 9.1.
2. updated to Mac OS 9.2.x which is more amenable to 2.0.4.
Now 9.2.x gobbles up even more RAM than 9.1, right?
