What's the point?  If you want your initial/default login screen to be text-only, boot
into runlevel 3.  By choosing runlevel 5, you're asking Mandrake to fire up X11 and
then use the next available console (which is 7 in this case) to act as the
initial/default login.

Read 'man inittab' for more information.
