One of these days, RedHat might actually run me off!!!! AAAARGH!!!!
Can anyone tell me how to get CentOS 4 to simply boot to the console
in
text mode? If I wanted a stinkin' GUI I would have installed winders! Now, my KVM and 25 foot cord is just too long to send a GUI signal across the room and I'm missing 50% of the screen.. striped
vertically..
at about 1/8th inch spacing. Not really good enough to see what I'm in nor what the crap I'm doing. I do see I guess an Xterm window.. so I guess I can issue commands.. or... maybe I'll have to drag over a
derned
monitor. Shew!!
Edit /etc/inittab. Change your default runlevel from X11 to Full multiuser mode. (5 to 3).
