I am installing centos 5.3 i386 in a virtual machine. I am using kvm-87 (which I use for other images just fine).
The box installed fine, it boots up I can login but NONE of the services are starting .
When watching the boot up process it goes from the "Welcome to CentOS 5.3 " directly to mounting the partitions and a login prompt. All the services are not being started. What didnt happen at install? or what do I check now.
/etc/inittab looks normal.
Thanks,
Jerry

Maybe you look at VNC and console is set to serial, or vice versa.

Its like the /etc/rc script isnt running. Who or what starts that up? If I run it manually "sh rc" then everything starts up.
Where is that?

actually - after comparing the inittab file with a good one on my server it was corrupt. Not sure why. afterwards I'll reinstall from scratch and see if its messed up again. For now its running as normal.
Sorry do have bothered everyone. I thought something was seriously wrong.
