[SATLUG] Runlevel Switching

[HickBilly]

I am running Fedora 6.xx and the installation defaults to booting into
gdm or kde (my choice was gdm).  I wish to update the nv graphics driver
with the latest from from nVidia but I need to have X disabled to sh
the .run file.

I think I can find and alter the runlevel script but short of that,
isn't there some way of switching to runlevel 3 with a short command in
a terminal?  I am familiar with startx, from the dos console and that
used to be the install method default.  Defaulting to booting directly
into Gnome is not what I had been used to...days of Fedora Core 1.  I
have been a windows-only user until recently, so I am not yet up to
speed on issues such as this one.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated!
