1)
It is probably the best way to install the predefined 'standard
workstation' (the last one on the list) during the installation process
and try to run XF86Setup after that. (You must run XFSetup as 'root'!) 

2)
You should probably first select svga-server as 'the default server'
during the installation process. (Do you know the details about your video
card and the monitor?)

3)
After your XF86Setup is finished you have to start X by giving the command 
startx

4) 
When you reboot the machine xdm will automatically start X. 


Did you use cd-roms or what method for installation?
