I believe I have the exact answer to "Centos 6 Server has no GUI" but I don't see how to attach my answer to that thread.

I am running in Virtual Box on a Windows machine. When I changed my memory available from ½ Gb to 1 Gb , and my video memory to 24Mb, my installation script went from an interface reminiscent of MS-DOS in the 80's to a nice GUI installation, and my number of packages installed went from 200 and some to 1400 and some.

"Reminiscent of MS-DOS"? You mean, that DOS resembled any version of *nix? You mean you *don't* use command line, a *lot*, on servers?

To quote a friend, "Your mother dresses you funny, and you need a mouse to delete files!".
