Dual Booting GPU/ROG/Asus G752VS

Almost all GPU, by default have Windows Operating System pre-installed on them, and you as a Data Scientist who wants Deep Learning needs a Linux Box.

I had gone through several error in installing finally compiling all processes in all.
We will target xUbuntu 14 and Ubuntu 16 for installation, both have almost similar steps, and where they would vary I will point it out.
