Default Solaris runlevel configuration

Hi,
How do I boot into the non-gui runlevel in Solaris 10 OS.
I am having trouble configuring my ATI video driver Card, Radeon 200
embedded into the Intel D101GGC MOTHERBOARD. The screen goes blank
after booting from a successful install of Solaris 10.
So, currently I have booted into the console mode from "Fail Safe"
Option, would like to stay this way, till I manage to configure my
Video card.

Thanks, and feedback will be appreciated,
Praveen.

Crossposting the query for your reference:

While in failsafe mode, the OS mounts my / partition on /a
So, I go ahead and do a su - root.
And then run the command /a/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d .
And then I reboot the machine.

It has still not worked.

Is something like "chroot" needing to be done...?

I tried something else... I went back to the normal bootup..
After being prompted for Root password for System Maintenance...
I gave the command /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d.
I got the following response.
disable failed.
could not remove /etc/rc2.d/S99dtlogin.

I am working on 6/06 version of Solaris 10 OS
Could I use the svcadm service to disable the GUI Mode ? if so what
would the syntax be?

Thanks and Regards,
Praveen.

Do you know what crossposting means?

It means sending a message whilst having a bad day.
Watch out - there are a lot of self-styled newsgroup police around!
