EVE linux Ubu.16.04.3 issue

Hello All,
I am trying to install ubuntu desktop 16.04.3 within my eve instance with my routers. I follow the steps in the how to guide and get to step 9. Then I am dead in the water.
7. Create new lab and add newly created linux-ubuntu-desktop-16.04.02 node
8. Connect it to your home LAN cloud/internet, this need to get updates from internet
9. Start node in lab and do install of your Linux, customize it as you like, as you have connected it to home LAN and internet this install will be like normal Linux installation.
10. Remove cdrom.iso from /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/linux-ubuntu-desktop-16.04.02/
I can not telnet or vnc to it to start the install. What am i missing? I figured VNC server needs to be installed on the box before I can use VNC viewer to see the machine within EVE. But I did think that telneting to it would provide command line/terminal access? I see in the docs it uses 16.04.2 ( I tried that version as well. no joy)
Any advice would be great appreciated! thanks in advance.

Before Step 9, after you move the ISO image to cdrom.iso and hda image created, Fix the Permission
/opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions
Then Add Node to LAB, Connect Ethernet to Cloud0 ( Hope you have DHCP Server in the network), so Linux should pickup IP and move forward with installation.
R!

Hey R!
Much appreciated. I did as you said, however, I still am not able to get into the ubuntu desktop machine either through vnc or terminal.
I am asked for a password for VNC for the ubuntu machine on port 32789 and have tried the standard "eve" password, aswell as others but no joy. I set up a few test devices and get a DHCP IP through the mgmt0 cloud but doesnt appear to work on the ubuntu machine. I have attached a screenshot with a message from the EVE terminal hoping it may provide some more insight but it doesnt look like it has much to offer. Thanks again for the help!!

Have you created this image yourself? Did you install it per how to using ISO?
Or where you got that image?
Just tested how to from here works all like charm:)

Thank you both for the quick responses. Uldis, The documentation was very straightforward. It seems like it should be working, clearly I am making a mistake somewhere. Not sure where though.
I am running a MAC with Vmware Fusion Professional Version 8.5.8 (5824040)
ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso - downloaded from the ubuntu site.
Vmware Fusion VM settings: (Attached)
Current EVE setup, LINUX to MGMT0 CLOUD : (Attached)
Connection to VNC and also TElnet screenshot: (Attached)
Again, thank you for your patience and assistance.
