Is there a way to boot up in text mode even when system is set to boot up in X?
I need a way (if it exists) other than editing inittab or running setup.
Almost always, I want it to go ahead and boot up into
KDE. Occasionally, though, I'd like to boot up in text mode.
Is there a way to interrupt the boot sequence to tell it to start up
in text mode for just this session?
I tried "Press I to enter interactive startup" on bootup, figuring
there might be an option in there, but it just blows right by that
and doesn't give me time to hit "I".
Thanks...
