How can I arrange to boot to console mode rather than X. With the
ability to startx when I feel like it.
I'm not familiar with grub2 and the debian vm I'm using on a solaris

Can anyone stear me to the files I'd need to edit?

Hello,
After adding some applications that use elements of
gnome, the boot now
starts xdm directly. Prior to changes the boot started
a console, when
needed the xdm gui could be started using Alt + F7.
I wish to reinstate that process.
So far I have found this on google, seems relevant to
me.

How can I boot to the console? I am stuck in a loop at the graphical login
