Well, if you installed an X server, you can log in and type the startx
command.  If that works, you know that you'll be able to change your
inittab to always boot up in run level 5 (where X is run automatically).
If not, you'll have to install or get X working first.

The /etc/inittab file has a line with id:3:initdefault near the start,
the number is the default initial run level.  Once you'd got X running,
you'd change that 3 to a 5.  You need to be the root user to edit that
file.
