Hi Steve and Jim,
I was able to boot into shell with run level 3.
I have already updated my system by doing 'yum update'.

:( It is not creating file in /etc/X11. It creating a file
'/root/xorg.conf.new' and asking me to test with command:
X -config <filename>
Anyway this is not working.
My system's configuration is:
Graphics Adapter: Intel 82845G
Monitor: ViewSonic VE510s
Motherboard: Intel D845GVSR
I have collected the log while running 'X -configure'

(++) Using config file: "/root/xorg.conf.new"
Xorg detected your mouse at device /dev/input/mice.
Please check your config if the mouse is still not
operational, as by default Xorg tries to autodetect
the protocol.
Your xorg.conf file is /root/xorg.conf.new
To test the server, run 'X -config /root/xorg.conf.new'
