[SOLVED] How do you change it to only boot in text mode

[TheFuzz4]

Hey everyone,

I need to setup a server so that it will only boot in text mode the only stuff I have found so far is just for Ubuntu which does not apply to me here. Thanks for your help with this. I am sure this is something simple I am probably just missing it.

Ok so I figured this out. Here is what you need to do:

Just type in the following

sudo update-rc.d -f kdm remove
If you are using gnome just replace the kdm with gdm instead
if you want to put it back to the way it was before just run
sudo update-rc.d -f kdm defaults

I got all of this from http://www.debianadmin.com/howto-boo...-mode-gui.html
