IIRC you need to go into /etc/rc.d/rc*.d/ and mv 'S99gdm' to 'K99gdm'
wherever it appears. Same if you see 'S99kdm' anywhere. This will keep
the GUI login splash from starting up.
Whereas this will work (assuming you're using gdm or kdm instead of xdm
or wdm), you'll have to do this for each runlevel.
I find it easier to temporarily disable [gkxw]dm by editing
/etc/init.d/[gkxw]dm and putting the single line "exit 0" as the first
non-comment line in the script (or, for ease of finding later, just as
the first line). This way you only have to edit one file rather than
five or so.
