Sorry for the misunderstanding, this is not the way to append something
to the kernel commandline. Please press 'e' rather than 'c' in the grub
menu and edit the line starting with "linux".
Instead of editing the grub menu, you can also run
"systemctl set-default multi-user.target" once the machine is up. To
back out this change, just delete /etc/systemd/system/default.target.

Yes, because the normal boot will start the display manager and trigger
your original problem.
