Does anyone know how to set the default runlevel to 3?

Mine seems to start at 5 and has GDM and other graphical things running. Kind of a waste for a headless device.

One page mentioned systemd, but I don’t know how to set it.

Depends on which distro you run.

It’s the latest BBB Angstrom Distribution.

something like:
systemctl disable graphical.target
systemctl enable mutli-user.target

There really is no concept of run-level 3 anymore in modern Linux

Thanks. This make more sense by what I see in /lib/systemd/system.

root@beaglebone:/lib/systemd/system# systemctl enable multi-user.target
ln -s ‘/lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target’ ‘/etc/systemd/system/default.target’
