When installing RedHat 7.1, I chose to have a graphical user login. Now I want to disable it and login from the console. How can I do that?...

edit your /etc/inittab file and change
id:5:initdefault:
to
id:3:initdefault:
The comments right above it in the file explain what is going on here...
# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:
# 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
# 1 - Single user mode
# 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
# 3 - Full multiuser mode
# 4 - unused
# 5 - X11
# 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)

Quiet brain, or I\'ll stab you with a Q-tip.
