You are then on console or still within an X terminal?

When changing runlevels start and stop scripts are executed. See the
output of "chkconfig --list" to see what services are active or inactive
in which runlevel.

The proper way would be to logout from X session, pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1
to be on console and then enter "init 3". Or you could directly reach
runlevel 3 from boot by adding 3 to the kernel parameter line.
