Reinstalling is a lot faster than troubleshooting at this point so I elected to reinstall a third time and start over. That done I am back at the same impasse. It seems to me that I should not have to jump through all these hoops just to accomplish what has always been a simple configuration change. I do not consider this an improvement. The starting point, bringing /etc/inittab up in a text editor produces: # inittab is no longer used when using systemd. # # ADDING CONFIGURATION HERE WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON YOUR SYSTEM. # # Ctrl-Alt-Delete is handled by /etc/systemd/system/ctrl-alt-del.target # # systemd uses 'targets' instead of runlevels. By default, there are two main targets: # # multi-user.target: analogous to runlevel 3 # graphical.target: analogous to runlevel 5 # # To set a default target, run: # # ln -s /lib/systemd/system/<target name>.target /etc/systemd/system/default.target # So I Think I have done what it says I should do: [bobg@box6]$ ln -s /lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target /etc/systemd/system/default.target ln: failed to create symbolic link `/etc/systemd/system/default.target': File exists And this is where I got in trouble before. What must I do to fix this?
