When booting, click any key to drop into grub booting menu, click Tab to bring up option line. Append 1 or 3 after the kernel line.  Then it will boot without GUI.

This is useful in case the X configuration is messed up.  Normal booting will result a locked display as well as locked mouse and keyboard.  By booting without GUI, you can get a chance to reinstall graphic drive, or fix X configuration.
