Hi, I have my system going into run level 2 but still X starts. I would
like to make X not start on system boot as I like to have the system come up
in text only mode then have the option to start X later if I choose. What
is the easiest way on etch to stop the X server from running on boot?

You system probably start gdm, so you can remove startup link from rc.d
directories with this command:
update-rc.d -f gdm remove
You can still start gdm by hand of course with /etc/init.d/gdm start or
if you don't need gdm then you can start X direct with startup script
startx.
Best.
