    Launch custom gui from console

    Hi,

    I have successfully customized linux (CentOS distro) using kickstart and custom splash screen. I havent added/installed any desktop (gnome/kde) package in my custom distro. So obviously after installation the linux will start in console mode.

    My requirement is i have to add a custom gui which basically provides 1.product information 2. product agreement and 3. product cd key. My custom linux do not need a desktop, and just for my custom gui i do not wish to install all the desktop packages. Sitting with a blank slate if you know what i mean. Please any suggestion/ideas would be great.

    Thanks
    Sanju

    One option would be to start twm and then add a startup script that runs your app as soon as twm starts.
