RedHat 6.1 not booting to GUI
I just installed RedHat 6.1 on 2 servers and the system kept booting into text mode. I logged in as root and changed the line id:3:initdefault to id:5:initdefault in file /etc/inittab. At the bottom where the status/loading bar moves, it always gets to the end and stops. I assume it's because it doesn't like the value 5 in there. Any ideas?
Is there a way to just load the gui from the text menu? Edit:I found more resources.. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...el-6-a-860520/ Final Edit: I did a reinstall and chose Desktop as an additional installation package. |
The command to start the GUI from text mode is:
Code:
startx |
No worries, I got it sorted out. StartX didn't work so I just did a reinstall. I assumed it would be similar to installing Fedora...guess not!
