It's part of the options line passed to grub in /boot/grub/grub.conf --
title Fedora Core (2.4.22-1.2115.nptl)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi rhgb
initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl.img ^^^^
If you want to boot to the console, removing rhgb won't accomplish
that; you'll still wind up booting to X.
To boot to the console, you want to boot in text mode, which means editing
/etc/inittab
# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:
# 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
# 1 - Single user mode
# 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
# 3 - Full multiuser mode
# 4 - unused
# 5 - X11
# 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
#
id:3:initdefault:
^
If you're booting to X, that 3 will be a five; change it to 3 and you should
boot to the console, whether or not rhgb is on the grub options line.
