Boot without X

[Thomas Kaiser]

Hello All

How can I boot Ubuntu without Xserver? (just console)

I tried the recovery mode from the GRUB boot menu, but it still starts 
with X.
Then I changed the runlevel in inittab to 1 and failed at the prompt 
"please enter root password or press Control-D" to continue. There is no 
root password in default Ubuntu and with Control-D I came back to the 
same question!

Any ideas?

Thanks, Thomas
