As I stated in my earlier posts, I am unable to prevent my system from starting x as it is set up to start automatically at boot. I can not get to a text console unless I select the option of "console login" from KDM, therefore I can not change run levels or anything else for that matter.
What I suggested is before boot, at the prompt of the bootloader.
It doesn't matter what you have setup for normal boot, single will always boot without X, as it boots into runlevel 1, not runlevel 2.
Cheers,
