I had problems with turning off XDM as well, I tried changing the default milestone and ended up unable to login using the GUI (hung on the BIOS splash screen). Fortunately, the grub installed by default had a text login entry, but it had problems with the TTY (stty broken, no line-feeds - hardware/BIOS issue?). I was able to enable sshd and avoided a reinstall, but I'm at a loss how to fix the problem I created. FWIW, there is a virtual console project that has a working prototype; a colleague had initial success with it out of the box.
