  * Insert the license code in the email in the NEMO GUI.

After installing the license code it needs to restart the service by entering with root grants and typing:

**NOTE**: if the serial number is **e62496ff-f3b5-c272-09e4-f17a633a23bc** there might be a problem generating the S/N. Please restart the virtual machine and check again. If the serial doesn't change use it otherwise use the new one.
