init 3

Hello

I'm using Fedora Core 2, and I want to boot in init 3 instead of init 5 (X-server). How can I fix this? I thought something in the grub.conf file, but when I add the "init3" word, I still get the X-server logon screen...

This is a part of my grub.conf file:
title Fedora Core (2.6.7-1.494.2.2 stack 16k)
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.7-1.494.2.2.stk16 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.7-1.494.2.2.stk16.img

What do I have to do?

thanks for any help!

edit /etc/inittab

change the line that says:
id:5:initdefault:

to

id:3:initdefault:
