Boot into init 4

cueman · 12-05-2006, 07:08 PM

Newb here, but did a successful install of slack 11.0. What do I need to edit in order for it to boot right into KDE. Currently it boots to the command prompt, and I can get there by typing init 4. I know it's probably safest to leave it this way, but this is just a test install, and I plan on doing a permanent install once I learn the in and outs of Slackware.

By the way I really like SeaMonkey, which is something I hadn't installed in my Suse installations.

Thanks, Cueman
