How do you Edit the boot commands in GRUB? What file is it?
grub is setup to hide the menu. So the first thing you want to do is press a key in order to show the available kernel and other OS choices.
Next you want to press the "a" key in order to get into the append mode. This will put you on the line where you can add or remove options you want to supply to the boot process. You can backspace out rhgb and the word quiet in order to see the boot messages and to get rid of the GUI boot message display.
If you want to boot into runlevel 3 where X does not start unless you run startx from the console, you would put a space after the last entry and then the number 3, followed by pressing enter to start the boot process.
If you needed to add any other special option to the boot stanza, it is accomplished in much the same way.
