Hi mate, cheers for that.

I knew it was init something, but after working with a falty MBR for the
last 3 weeks, the only thing I could think of was "initrd". LOL.

Thanks again,

Chris,
I'm not gusy but if you switch to run level 3, you'll be in command line

mode on FC4.  You can edit /etc/inittab and change the default run level
to 
3.  Look for the line with "initdefault".

Hi gusy,

I have just installed FC4 on my machine, but now I have a bit of a
problem.



There is a gui login, and when you login there is a gui coming up with
nothing but a terminal window and the clock.



How do I get it into entirely command line mode?



Cheers,
