Hello, subhasis83.

Create a bootable pendrive holding the Ubuntu 13.04 32-bit live system. - Making a bootable USB of Ubuntu (http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/usb).
Boot your netbook from this pendrive and launch the Ubuntu 13.04 live system.
Thus you will be able to answer your own question.

Kind regards,
Karl

P.S.:
On the Acer One D260 netbook where I am typing right now I am running Ubuntu 12.04.2 with xfce desktop without any hassle. This Acer has got 1 GB of RAM only, and a dual core Atom N450 processor, too. So definitely no power machine.
No idea whether it would run Ubuntu 13.04, too. Cannot be bothered to try out a Ubuntu edition which will die after only 9 months. :wink:
