Boot to terminal, bypass X (angstrom)

Hi there, simple question, on BeagleBone Black with Angstrom, how do I configure it to boot straight to terminal, bypassing X?

As a side note, just to invite commentary, I want to begin configuring it to do stuff without the complications of X, so ultimately just want to SSH in and code up my solutions. Ultimate goal is an environmental monitor with sensors for:

Temperature
CO2
Relative Humidity
Noise

I’ve already implemented temp sensing with DS18B20 and relay control with raspbian on Raspberry Pi along with an android monitoring app, just moving across to BeagleBone.

Why don’t you compile yourself the angstrom. With the flag that specify to not install the X server. Ask to Gerald. :wink:
