From /etc/inittab: # Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are: # 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this) # 1 - Single user mode # 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking) # 3 - Full multiuser mode # 4 - unused # 5 - X11 # 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this) yum for example is a command line tool. Doing the online upgrade in X mode you risk that your system will not instantly after the upgrade because of bigger changes.
