Ok, I just updated to 5.1.28. And my Ubuntu version is already 16.04.
Let me try again if it works.
Thanks all for your reply.

BTW, I am more interested in my another query about QEMU arm.
This will be much quicker and easy for me.
But the problem is I wanted to use multiple ssh shell on qemu.
Also I needed a pre-built rootfs image for qemu-arm, cortex-a9
versatilepb machine.
It should have networking and ssh built-in so that I can connect to it
using PUTTY client.
Note that I could able to build my own minimal busybox and boot qemu
using linux-next (non graphical mode).
But I could able to get only one shell.
I need to test some client/server problem, so I need multiple shell.
I am not able to configure net/ssh on this qemu system.

So, I have 2 things to ask:
1) If you have pointers on how to setup ssh/net connection on QEMU
with busybox, do let me know.
2) Let, please point me to a pre-built qemu-arm busy box image with
full features.


Thanks,
Pintu
