I suggested that as well, and it did not work. I think the other
responses on this list that the rescue environment that is set up is far
too minimal for running something like X is correct. There is little
chance that X and all are in other then RPMs waiting to be installed
from the CD. And, on 9.1, I think X automatic configuration was, well, a
dream of things to come.
