At the boot prompt, enter 3 - tells the system to boot into runlevel 3; "Full multiuser but no graphics". Alternatively, if you miss the boot screen, when the system is up and at the login screen; <ctrl><alt><F1> brings you terminal 1. Login as root and enter init 3 - which takes the system 'down' from runlevel 5, to runlevel 3.
