You shouldn't have to remove your GUI's or login managers..Somewhere there's an admin tool to the login managers ... I've seen it in KDE and Gnome has gdmsetup... These will allow you to choose using a GUI login or not. Look in the KDE Control Center.
another alternative is to edit your /etc/inittab and change your default runlevel to something other than gui with network... then if you need gui, just do init 5 at the cli..
