There in is the cause. Once you install in text-mode, it assumes that
you had a good reason for doing so and so doesn't default to graphical
mode after install. To permanently make it boot into graphical mode:
1. log into the console as root
2. using a console text editor such as 'nano' or 'vi' open the
'/etc/inittab' file for eiditng
eg. nano /etc/inittab
eg. vi /etc/inittab
3. change the line with 'id:3:initdefault:' to say 'id:5:initdefault:'
(note the change from 3 to 5)
4. save the file
This will take effect on your next bootup.
