no user interface

[james heck]

I just installed 5.2.1 via download onto cdr media. I left about 10 gigs 
open for freebsd, and left 9 for my win2000. the dual boot works fine on my 
dell laptop, however when i go to load freebsd 5.2.1, i cant get into a 
graphical interface. Instead it stays in a "dos-like" interface with 
commands only. It recognizes my user name and the admin name of root, but 
there is only a command line and no background. i installed cd1, i have a 
boot only and a second disc which i have not installed. please point me in 
the correct direction
