Swapping boot behavior on FC-5

First of all, slap a n00b-sticker on my forehead...

Okay, so in the interest of learning I've installed FC-5 via GUI but want to change the boot behavior so it boots right to bash instead of the GUI...how do I do this? I found the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit initialization script but don't know what to do/change to make it not boot to the GUI.

Much appreciated...

Change the five in line "id:5:initdefault" in /etc/inittab to read three.

If you want to change only temporary you can place a '3' at end of Grub line who boot Linux
