    your own special RHEL

    I tried to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES 4U1 without X Windows.
    Wow, did that not work.
    Instead, it installed X Windows anyway, but with KDE, and it didn't run the setup agent, so it just sat there with a KDE login screen.

    Not bad, you might think, except whenever I tried to login it said "root login not permitted". And there were no other accounts created, because it's the setup agent that creates the first non-root account.

    So when I reinstalled, I let it choose all the X Gnomey stuff it wanted. Then it was happy.
