Sometimes you dont want a graphical desktop to load on your PC
This is what you need to do for linux mint
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
change the line that reads "quiet splash" to "text"
save file
This lets you see all the boot messages scrolling by
then to final step to disable the gui boot
sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target
reboot
if you need to get into the gui desktop for some reason
sudo systemctl start lightdm
