I think it can mean both: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headless ...and I kind of mean it both ways, as I don't want a GUI grabbing CPU cycles and I don't want to attach a mouse/kbd/monitor to it.
Thanks for the advice everyone. I'm asking because I am wanting to set up Scalix and am finding it quite difficult under Ubuntu (server), so I wanted to try a headless Fedora as a base, which should be better supported.
Hope that makes sense.
I hadn't thought of changing the run level. That's a good idea. then I can still boot to a GUI if I need it for something. hmmm...gonna have to think more about this.
Thanks again.

I'd thought that "headless" meant no monitor. Am I wrong about that?
