Hey, I'm completely new to the linux environment but I've decided to give it a shot. I've recently just installed Fedora 7 via VMware on Windows XP. I'm not sure whether this is actually an installation problem or just me being completely oblivious as to how Fedora actually runs; but once the system was installed and did the first boot it boot directly into the console. There was no GUI boot.
Is this a problem due to not having sufficient RAM to run Fedora via VMware in GUI mode, or is there a simple command I can use to boot into a GUI mode? (The laptop I'm using has ~760 DDR2 RAM installed)
This is what comes up after I boot:
Fedora release 7 (Moonshine)
Kernel 2.6.20-2925.9.fc7xen on an i686
localhost login:
I realise I can log in as root, and I have no problem doing so - it's what I'm supposed to do after that which I don't know!
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction; thanks in advance.
