Does anyone know an easy way to promt for what Desktop Enviroment I want
to run in when i boot into runlevel 3 then type startx to get into X?
The reason i start in runlevel 3 is because my computer is acting as a
router/hardware firewall and i dont want all the X stuff running when im
not using it, so i really dont want to change it to boot in runlevel 5
so as to access the Red Hat session manager.
