X should be on the first disk or possibly the second.  Did you look  
in the /usr directory for a directory named X11R6?  If this is there  
then X should be installed.  If it is then try adding the following  
to ".profile" in your home directory: {if this file does not exist  
you can use "pico" to create it.}

PATH="$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin"
export PATH

Better yet to change this system wide (for all users)  "sudo pico / 
etc/profile" and add the following to the end of the PATH specified  
there --

:/usr/X11R6/bin

This will allow the terminal to find the executables in that  
directory without having to specify the full path.  I am not sure why  
but very often the PATH to X is not configured during install and  
needs to be added manually.  So double check, you might have X  
installed and the terminal just can't find it.

If there is no X11R6 directory in /usr then X is probably not installed.
