Just for completenes - there is another way to do it:
If you wait long enough after a "normal" power-up, you will see
"raspawning too fast, disabled for 5 minutes" message, when your computer
gives up starting X. Then you have 5 minutes to log-in on a virtual
console, and type "telinit 3" to get in the 3-rd runlevel (no X).
While you are at it, edit the /etc/inittab and set "default runlevel" to
3, until you are done with setting up X again...
