is DVD 2Z691-5599-A equivalent to 2Z69-5305-A ?

I'm trying to update an older (2004 ish) G5 to 10.4. I ordered an Install DVD on line & the image of the disk posted was 2Z69-5305-A (as suggested by BDAqua). When the disk arrived it was number 2Z691-5599-A. The seller has assured me that they sent a superior disk that will require fewer updates. Unfortunately, the installation process freezes at "preparing to install." I've tried to find the list of compatible machines for this disk but have been unable to locate that information.

The seller is willing to trade disks but if it is unnecessary (as they believe) I'll keep the current disk & try to resolve the installation problem.

If anyone can point me to the list of compatible machines for disk 2Z691-5599-A I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.
