Such OS install is nice for building an optimal system from scratch, setting up a headless server no monitor, keyboard and mouse and other purposes; but for one reason or another, you may still require a graphical user interface GUI. This tutorial will show you how to install and start the graphical window system and the desktop environment of your choice.
To achieve the task, you will need to install the following package groups groups of packages combined for a common purpose : "X Window System", "Desktop", "Fonts" and "General Purpose Desktop" last two are optional. Thus, installing the "General Purpose Desktop" package group is optional, but will help you mimic the system you would probably get if you where to include the default graphical desktop during OS install.
It is generally recommended to install the "Fonts" package group to improve usability of the GUI, no matter what desktop environment you choose to install. Upon installation and subsequent reboot, you will be presented with the "Setup Agent" interface even if you choose to stay in runlevel 3, you will see the text user interface of this tool - hence, the options provided will be different from the graphical variant.
This is due to package "firstboot" being automatically installed by the "X Window System" package group and can be a handy way to setup a freshly installed system. All steps in "Setup Agent" are optional, so you can just skim through them, skipping any.
Though, creating a new normal user on a freshly installed system is done best through this graphical tool, as it helps automatically create the new user and associate it with groups such as the "video" group appropriate for everyday use in a GUI environment.
So, for the purpose of this tutorial, I would advice not skipping the user creation step. The console interface for "firstboot". If you have installed the X Window System but are not seeing a graphical desktop environment once you log into your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, you can start the X Window System graphical interface using the command startx. Note, however, that this is just a one-time fix and does not change the log in process for future log ins.
