Running X-Windows at Startup

The file /etc/inittab will open. Within the first screen, you'll see a section of the file which looks like this:

# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:

            #   0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)

            #   1 - Single user mode

            #   2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)

            #   3 - Full multiuser mode

            #   4 - unused

            #   5 - X11

            #   6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)

            #  id:3:initdefault:

To change from a console to a graphical login, you should change the number in the line id:3:initdefault: from a 3 to a 5.
