Query related to runlevels and milestones

Hi friends..
Please clarify my follg doubts:
1. I can easily switch from runlevel 1 to runlevel 2 or 3 by means of init 2 or init 3 commands. I can even get a gui login screen when i do an init 3 from runlevel1.

2.But suppose if I am in GUI and switched to single-user milestone by means of
Code:
#svcadm milestone single-user

3.Now, if I want to switch back to gui mode, i type:
Code:
#svcadm milestone multi-user-server

but the system does not go to gui mode. I tried
Code:
 #svcadm milestone all

from single-user level. It does attempt to go to gui, but comes back to CLI mode..

Please let me know how to make this work

Can be simplified in:
Code:
svcs "*milestone*"
