I have installed RedHat 8.0 when I restart the machine it directly go to the GUI mode, how can I set it not to go to GUI but to the root prompt?

Edit your /etc/inittab file,

Change:

id:5:initdefault:

to

id:3:initdefault:

reboot

Edit: Well, actually, that will take you to a login prompt, where you can login and get a root prompt.
