If so, are you sure that you changed it correctly? Centos 7 doesn't use runlevels set in inittab like previous versions did. I see that fact is actually noted in /etc/inittab, along with the expected way to do it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frank, Yes, you are correct, I changed the run level and not boot level to 5 and did so by using the command : ln -sf /lib/systemd/system/graphical.target /etc/systemd/system/default.target Also, I appreciate everybody's input on this, but I am still at a loss as to how to fix this. Without being able to reboot, it sure makes the set up difficult. Does anyone else have any ideas?? Greg
