Setting up X server on Centos6 minimal
From my webhost's knowledgebase:
If CentOS has already been installed without a graphical interface,
you can install this with the following commands:
$ yum groupinstall "X Window System" "Desktop" "Desktop Platform"
$ yum install gdm
If you would like this to be the default runlevel, you can edit
/etc/inittab and set the default level to 5 instead of 3:
$ vi /etc/inittab
Change:
id:3:initdefault:
To:
id:5:initdefault:
