If you don't want to boot into a graphical login, the best thing to do is
probably not to start xdm at all :-) Most often, xdm is started by rc
scripts at boot time. See if your /etc/rcX.d (0<X<6) directories contain
links like SXxdm and delete them (1<X<100), but don't erase links like
KXxdm(1<X<100).
Good Luck.
