There isn't a "text.target" as far as I'm aware. multi-user.target
will skip the DM if one is installed. graphical.target is the
default in Debian, and runs the DM if one is installed, or skips it
if none is installed.

I use "systemctl set-default multi-user.target" on all my systems (with SystemD), and then issue "systemctl start graphical.target" when I am satisfied. (I prefer to do the "apt-get dance" in Text Mode).
