* i.e. with a 3 in it, '''not''' with a 5 in it. This sets the default runlevel to 3, which does not have X by default.
* '''Media drives''': if you want media in separate drives, set them up to mount in /var/hda/files (or subdirectories of that directory, music/ movies/, etc.)
 
== Running Headless ==
 
To run headless (no keyboard monitor or mouse):
 
* You may want to not start graphics (see Runlevel 3 above)
* It's up to your BIOS to not complain if there is no keyboard. You have to set it that way
* Plat for power failures. Some BIOSes also will restore power a) always, or b) to the last state (if it was on it will power it on, if not it will not power it on). Do what you want depending on your circumstances
 
The way to test this is like this:
 
* Set your settings per the above
* Boot without a keyboard and *with* monitor
* Power up like that. Make sure it powers up fine
* When all it's good, remove the monitor
* If you are brave, simulate a power failure by yanking the power cord. Then replace it.
