I thought this was caused by default runlevels? Am I wrong here?

I guess it runs xdm or gdm as a service; then you will get this behaviour.
/etc/init.d/xdm stop
/etc/init.d/gdm stop
If that's the thing that cause you problems, either uninstall those packages, or simply remove the xdm/gdm entries in your /etc/rcX.d directories where X is the runlevel.
(I know there is some GUI program to do this as well, but the way I see it
that is more complicated than doing it directly)
