Hi.

Did you install a desktop (GUI) as part of the installation? Normally, when you do (as part of a manual installation, at least), the default run level is set to 5 ("X11").

You can change the default run level manually in /etc/inittab (from 3 to 5) but, of course, that only makes sense if you did install a desktop.

A simple way to find out if you installed a desktop (short of looking in ~/anaconda-ks.cfg) is to type init 5. If that starts the GUI, you're quids in, otherwise you'll need to install some additional packages.

Hi

Please tell us which mode you had completed your installation (text / GUI mode) and which option you had choose in installation time like desktop, server, cluster etc. I believe you were missed GUI dependency package in installation time. Please try to update default run-level with 5 in /etc/inittab file or in command promt try to run
Code:
startx

command.

Thank you
