Hi my name is Ray monaco and I saw your problem on the posting server.
The first thing you have to do is login as root user accoount you simply
type root at the prompt and it will ask you fro a password at this point you
enter your password and then you will be login as root, then you have to
configure the x window manager for use on your computer this is easy just
tyoe start -x and it should prompt you.
