Solaris 10 - Run Level Modification

DevendraG · July 20, 2011, 10:33am

Hello,

I'm creating a VM Image of Solaris 10 on VM Player. I've completed the installation & I am using the Java Desktop as my default logon. I need to modify the Run Level to Console Mode (permanently). Unlike previous versions or Linux, modifying inittab file is not an option here.

Please advise.

TIA!

disable the cde-login service via smf.

# svcadm disable cde-login

You don't have to change the system's runlevel. To disable graphical environment use this:

svcadm disable gdm2-login
