Can you check if it works on Ubuntu 14.04?

Hi pdvyas
The moment I posted the question, I realized that I must check with 14.04.
Therefore I am upgrading the Version of Ubuntu, once it is upgraded I will try to repeat the steps again and if I found some issue, then I will let you know for the same.

Instead of upgrading, can you try on a clean install of 14.04?

Actually, I have tried to do a fresh installation of 14.04 so many times but I get an error message n number of times. I don’t remember it yet. Let me try to upgrade it and if I find an issue then I will do a fresh installation and let you know if I find any issue.

Hi Pdvyas,
It finally got installed without any issue the only issue was the version of Ubuntu.
Now with 14.04, it worked fine.
Thanks
