I was beating my head against this thing for a few hours before I finally gave up and went searaching for an answer, so THANKS!!! for providing one. :) You might want to simply add that to get gnome up and running after the text-based install, (assuming they did the default and installed it of course) they should edit /etc/inittab type vi /etc/inittab once the file is open press 'i' (insert mode) change the line: id:3:initdefault: to this: id:5:initdefault: hit esc press ":" type wq this will exit vi, and then type telinit 5 At this point, you're all set. I only mention this because lots of folks out there are becoming less and less comfortable at the terminal, but we still want to help em use Linux! Perfect instructions!

You might want to simply add that to get gnome up and running after the text-based install, (assuming they did the default and installed it of course) they should edit /etc/inittab
type vi /etc/inittab
once the file is open press ‘i’ (insert mode)
change the line:
id:3:initdefault:
to this:
id:5:initdefault:
hit esc
press “:”
type wq
this will exit vi, and then type
telinit 5

At this point, you’re all set.

I only mention this because lots of folks out there are becoming less and less comfortable at the terminal, but we still want to help em use Linux!
