Mac OS X Install Disc: 2Z691-6040-A

Hi-
I'm planning to upgrade my mini from OSX 10.4.11 (Tiger) to 10.5.x (Leopard) using Apple's:'Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 CPU Drop-in DVD: 2Z691-6040-A',which is compatible with my system a late 2006 Mac Mini 166GHz Core Duo. Prior to attempting the Leopard installation, I will do a complete system back-up of my Tiger software. Are there any problems that I should be aware of when using the Drop-in DVD? Thanks for your help.

Mac Mini Core Duo; 1.66GHz;1GB; 60GB IHD; 560GB EHDs; Dell 1707FP, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

The 2006 Mac Mini was discontinued August 7, 2007.
