you're logged in !!

But i think what you are looking for is more a graphical interface and stuffs...
in such case, you have to install zenwalk "standard", as "core" is ~ zenwalk standard without graphical interface

You have installed the 'console-only' version of zenwalk

And: yes you did login to it...

If you start by typing "su" (push enter) and login as root. Then you can run "netpkg xfce" ... doing so will start a large download of xfce and dependencies (including xorg). After that is finished you can choose to run "startx" to load xfce - or if you want it per default on every boot you can edit the file /etc/inittab and find the line saying something like init:3 ... change it to init:4 ...

You can continue by downloading X applications - either from the command line (using netpkg) or from Zenpanel (using netpkg with a GUI).

Best regards,
Claus

i'm sorry, i need some help again, how step by step to installing window manager without internet connection?
i've try it twice, but i can't run startx, there's always error message

have you installed xorg and xfce?

if not, probably the easiest is to burn the standard version and reinstall zenwalk.

much easier and perhaps with less frustration.

best wishes
