In theory disks are do out ASAP for 9.1 final if you don't have them and
can wait through till Sunday it might be worth it.  Note that rc2 is a
bit buggy... Not unusable.. just flaky.. over DSL after installing rc2
the final update will take about 45 minutes to an hour. (based on what I
did for a friend yesterday.) Note... once you do the upgrade grab the
cooker kernel and sit back and smile because you will have 9.1 complete.

PS. (be sure and merge all rc files by searching for rpmnew files and
moving them/merging them correctly.)
