Just installed Solaris 8 but....

Hello again,

Well i went ahead with my solaris installation tonight (on my pc) and it all appeared to work ok.

Unfortunately, i am unable to use the system yet because it gives me this horrible message straight after it boots up:

"The X-server can not be started on display :0..."

It then asks for

timresh console login: (timresh is my hostname), followed by
Password:

I have not specified any login details during the installation and the only password i have created is my root password.

I'm a little bit stuck

Any help for this complete novice would really come in handy..

thanks for reading,

Timresh.
