When the system boots, the boot loader says "Press enter to boot now
or press any key to interrupt" (or something to that effect).
Hit space bar at that time (it has a 10-second timer that counts
backwards - that's when you hit the space bar) and type in "boot -c" -
that should bring you to a point where you choose a command-line
config or a visual config (by typing in "visual" when it asks you to).
Hope this helps. Also, I'm directing this reply to -questions, since
it seems to belong there a bit more then it does in the newbies :)
