How to Resolve INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

In most distributions this means that the system is booting by default into runlevel 5, which is supposed to respawn (re-start again after it’s been exited) a gui login via x windows, kdm, gdm, or whatever, but the system can’t locate the program. As a result below logs will keep appearing on your /var/log/messages for every 5 minutes.

# vi /etc/inittab

 id:3:initdefault:

# reboot server

# yum grouplist

# yum groupinstall “X Window System”

# yum groupinstall “GNOME Desktop Environment”

#change runlevel

# vi /etc/inittab

 id:5:initdefault:

You have now have successfully installed GNOME GUI. Restart the server and you will have GUI on your screen.
