You probably didn't install KDE at the install time ?

No. Look at /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession. Your xdm/kdm/gdm passes a parameter,
indicating the type of the session. Each one has their own config file.

Set your default init level to 3 -> /etc/inittab.

You can obviously re-install with a custom install. Otherwise, the 
re-install mostly means adding new RPMs. You can do it manually:

rpm -ivh <rpms you want>
