Solaris11 back to console boot

Question

I installed Solaris 11 X86. I installed solaris-desktop.

Then Solaris boots to GUI mode.

How can I make the Solaris boots to console mode? (And then optionally starts X by hand?)

Answer 1

You can disable booting into the GUI by running the following command:

svcadm disable application/graphical-login/gdm:default 

This will disable the GUI until you re enable the service.
