Method/Step

2. 1

   First, check the operating level of the system and whether the desktop environment is installed

   1. Use the command runlevel to view the current runlevel.

   2. Use the command Yum grouplist | more to see if the components of the desktop environment are installed,

3. 2

   Second, again from the results of the analysis above to see that the current RunLevel is 3, and there is no software installed desktop environment.

   Then we use the command to look at the desktop desktop environment of the software, and then install the displayed software components on it. For example:
