Installation completed but at first boot I completed the normal user

failed to load session "gdm-shell"

I would expect kdm instead of gdm.... and kdm has been installed
[root@f16tc2 ~]# type kdm
kdm is /usr/bin/kdm
While writing /etc/sysconfig/desktop with
DISPLAYMANAGER=KDE
didn't work on first boot run session (even pressing Ctrl-Alt-Backspace).
Setting it and rebooting the system lets kdm start.
But the session is by default set to gnome (that I didn't select
during install), and it seems I cannot select the "session type"
option.
At second attemp to click on it I get an X Windows System restart...
the same trying to click on "Menu" option
At second click when X restrts:
