Just try to read the README file. It's held in English and explains a few things.

Do you want to use Emacs with X?
Depending on your answer, you'll use or not this option.

Did you try

	./configure --help

This introduces to you all the options the configure script understands, which sets up the features GNU Emacs will have when built (and also when installed). The option "--without-x" is only then needed when you exactly know that you will never, never, never use GNU Emacs as an X client. GNU Emacs launched from the command line or such with -nw or --no-window-system will open inside a terminal (emulation) and not use X11.

It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.

Yeah, I am playing with the options.

But, I wanted to know the significance of --no-window-system. Thanks for explaining that :)

Will work with it to get emacs custom installation successfully.

Thanks for your help and support.

Regard,
Srinivasa

Your Emacs will be more featureful if you run

  yum-builddep emacs

to install dependencies before configuring.

This and much more is written in the INSTALL file.
