Hi:



I would like to prevent FC2 from booting into the GUI (Gnome) login
screen and just have it boot straight to the command prompt. Can
someone please tell me where I can configure this?

I'm not sure what to edit in /etc/grub.conf if that is where it is.


Its not in grub, but in /etc/inittab IIRC.


Well it could be in grub.conf. :-) I once had a "problem" where I changed /etc/inittab to boot into runlevel 3 but when I rebooted I kept getting runlevel 5. Turns out I had a 5 at the end of my kernel line in /etc/grub.conf :-)


Find this line:
------------
id:3:initdefault:
------------
and make your version like it. It probably says "id:5:initdefault:" now, which starts x and then does the login thing.




Thanks in advance
