   I read recently that to change the default runlevel on startup you

   I looked at my Debian testing box and it's set to 2.  What are the
   init levels for Debian?
   
Here is a good web site on Debian init:

For your purposes, all you really need to do is disable the init
script for or uninstall the X login (xdm?) package.  Hope this helps.
