Boot Debian to a command line and prevent X from starting on boot



Hi folks, I have a Debian lenny-stable install that I need a little
memory refresher with.

I need to boot and go straight to a terminal, and not start X on
bootup. I know there was a
way of doing so, but I forgot (I'm a little rusty and need to not be rusty).

Can someone tell me how to just boot and land on the command line,
bypassing X? Thanks!
