Reload grub configuration

To do it, you have to launch grub-update command.

Disable graphic boot mode:

To disable the graphical boot, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst file, and remove the word splash in the section dealing with the Linux boot.

Example:

  title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.12-9-386  root (hd0,0)
  kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-9-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet section
