Hmm, Let me run a test run at home when I get there. Ironically, as a Linux
Engineer, I have no linux boxes at work to test this.

Hi, sorry to be late,

It does not work again. 
let my download full centos dvd1,2 and update repository. I used
64-x86_64-2013-03-18-Install-DVD.iso and want to test
SL-64-x86_64-2013-03-21-Everything-DVD1-2.iso.(as Matthew said)

let me emphasize that if I put all desktop package group in %package section
my iso runs in graphical mode correctly!!. 

I want to have "minimal iso" that install in graphical mode and boot with
minimom packages in text mode!

		install 
		
		graphical

		anaconda says: no graphical installation is available, try
text mode!
		
		I thinks it needs some program (rpm) to be add in packages
section of ks file.

understand your question.

have a minimal install but have the install happen in graphical as opposed
to text mode?

it is that you are trying to accomplish?
