Hi,
It is intentional that linux machines still install Athena 9.0. The
installer for 9.1 is not done yet. However, if you log out of your
machine and leave it running overnight it should automatically update
to Athena 9.1. If you do not have hesiod information (I didn't
understand what you were trying to say there) you should register your
machine at http://web.mit.edu/acs/athena-pws-reg.html
