h2. Requirements

To configure InitTab you will need the following:
6
* a installed and supported operating system (e.g. CentOS)
7
* root-access

h2. Preliminary Note
10
11
While during Setup and Testing it is quite useful to have X and the Gnome-Desktop-Environment at hand in Produktion it is very seldom necessary.

13
Therefore we install the graphical environment but disable it by default in production use.

h2. Configure inittab
16
17
<pre><code class="bash">
18
vim /etc/inittab
19
</code></pre>
20
Set the default runlevel to "3" and reboot the system.
21
22
h2. Start X/Gnome-Desktop-Environment
23
24
There are 3 possibilities:
25
# change back the default runlevel in inittab to 5 and reboot
26
this requires a restart which is most likly not what you want
27
# @init 5@, will set the runlevel imediatly
28
return to runlevel 3 is not possible, the system will stay in runlevel 5 until reboot
29
# log in as a user and @startx@
30
as soon as you log-out you will return to console and stay in runlevel 3
