The raspi-config script creates a GUI menu which allows you to make several system config changes. This portion of the script enables or disables lightdm, the desktop manager used for Raspbian. It uses the same update-rc.d command as is described by Bryan Dunmore. Except Raspbian does not use GDM by default, and the RasPi will barely run it if installed.

That's not the answer to the question imho. With raspi-config you setup to boot to CLI permanently while the question asks how to do it once.

Yes, if it freezes once the desktop is up, and won't ctrl+alt+f2... how do you open a terminal to run that command? The only thing that seems to work is alt+sysrq+reisub. :(
