The easiest way to remove X and ALL GUI stuff is to reinstall. Really! Choose Expert mode or get the NetInstall CD and install only the Base System, a minimal, command-line only set up that you can build the system you need off of. Your black screen problem has happened to me in the past. I discovered it was caused (in my case) by the X server being called to run in a resolution not support by the graphic card. A bug in the installer? Setting a supported resolution fixed it.
