I haven't tried it yet, but couldn't you just change the runlevel once you've
got the backend configured and running ?
So set mythbackend to start in (for example) runlevel 3 ,and then change your
grub (or whatever bootloader you use) to boot in level 3 instead of 5. I've
only used Redhat/Fedora, so I don't know for definate on other distro's, but
runlevel 3 for me is console only, it doesn't startX.
