Michael,
To change a system that boots into the Graphic desktop to a system that
boots to a text prompt (or vice versa):
Edit the file
/etc/inittab
And change the line that reads:
id:3:initdefault:
to
id:5:initdefault:
(or vice versa)
The 3 and 5 are the "run level" that the system will boot into.
3 = text mode
5 = graphics (Xserver)
