Install Gnome GUI on CentOS 7

Install Gnome GUI on CentOS 7

When you install the centos server version, the system does not install the CentOS graphical interface program by default, such as gnome or kde. If you want to work in the graphic interface, you can manually install the CentOS Gnome GUI package. This article describes how to install the gnome GUI program on CentOS 7.

Before installing the Gnome package, we need to check whether the installation source is normal, because we need to install the gnome package through the yum command, and the yum command will download the installation package through the yum source.

1. Enter the following command in the command line to install the Gnome package.

1 $ sudoyum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop" "Graphical Administration Tools"

2. Update the system running level
If you want to automatically enter the graphic interface at the next startup of the system, you need to change the running level of the system and enter the following command to enable the graphic interface.

1 $ sudoln-sf/lib/systemd/system/runlevel5.target/etc/systemd/system/default.tar get

3. restart the system
When the system is started again, the GUI is displayed by default.
