How can I force a text only console when installing from live cd?

(This is the most recent livecd for x86 on www.gentoo.org)

There appears only gentoo or gentoo-nofb...as boot choices and either
of those ends in a gui.

I always find it takes me 10 minutes to find a terminal once the gui
comes up.  So prefer the text console.

Looking thru the F2 options.. as well, I don't see a choice that looks
like it might give me a text only console to work in.

I realize I can do something once I find a command terminal to either
kill X or just use that terminal... but why have to dick around like that?


Unless it has changed, it is "gentoo nox" at the prompt. Whatever option you want to use, you have to put the gentoo first. At least it was that way the last I used it anyway. If you just put nox, it will ignore it for some reason or other.

Hope that helps.

Oh, I use Knoppix most of the time. I can surf the web while something compiles. ;-)
