If you have a clean 9.0 system it should work like this:

- remove the 9.0 sources / update sources:
- point your urpmi to 9.1 sources, (wich you did),
- add the 9.1 security updates source
- first you should update urpmi and rpm packages:
#urpmi perl-URPM urpmi rpm
- then update the whole system:
#urpmi --auto-select
- the last thing you need is to update the kernel:
# urpmi kernel
- and reboot into your fully updated 9.1 system...


If you are using contribs or plf or some other repositories too,
you need to point them too to their 9.1 respective sources 
(and remove the old ones...)
