Subject: Re: [lug:16485] How to Stop X11 from Launching at Login?

If it's anything like normal distros, edit the /etc/inittab line:
id:5:initdefault:
to
id:3:initdefault:

3 will load everything except the GUI. I use this on my file server, mostly
cause I don't want to waste the resources, and most of my administration is
done through SSH.
