   Hi all,   
      
   >> If you do this, though, the graphical interface is still loaded and

   yep... :-)

   In Ubuntu you have to edit the runlevels because 2,3 and 5 are all the   
   same. But, e.g. if you remove the file "/etc/rc3.d/S??gdm" and edit your   
   grub menu.lst file to something like   
      
   - --snip   
   kernel [...] root=/dev/hda4 3 [...]   
   - --snap   
      
   your pc should start at runlevel 3. Now you should only have the   
   consoles ALT+F{1,2,3,4,5,6}. If you want to start X type "$ startx". Be   
   shure that all the init scripts in "/etc/rc2.d" have to be in   
   "/etc/rc3.d" as well! (copy them if not there). Otherwise it could be   
   that apache gets started in runlevel 2 but not in 3...   
      
   cheers,   
   Daniel   
      
   P.S.: try to edit the menu.lst in the   
      
   # kopt= [...]root=/dev/hda4 3 [...]   
      
   line, otherwise the next kernel update will bring you back to normal...
