After doing a bunch of ugly things for a second time to get a Debian
system installed and running I'm trying a third time.

There is no networking.  I need to build a module for my nic which
doesn't have a .deb package.  I have the source but need the kernel
source which wasn't installed.  I discovered that unilike what many
people told me I don't need to rebuild the kernel.

I also need to figure out why X isn't working.

There is also no mouse detection.

Whenever I boot it it tries to start X.  Several error messages.  This
is a hassle.

Before I do anything else I'd like to stop this.  I know it has
something to to with something called "runlevel"  What do I put in
what file to change this.
