Boot into runlevel 2 by adding "2" to your boot options, or in a liveCD, type in "dsl 2" at the boot prompt.  This will give you 4 virtual terminals, all logged in as root.
hi,
I have changed INIT: runlevel to 2 but it's still asking username and password ?

i have changed '5' to '2' in /etc/inittab

id:2:initdefault:

I have installed hdd.

P.S : I want to do this :

1-) auto login as root
2-) do not startx (its ok with 2)
3-) auto run a program

If the program has failed, I need to open second consol and I have to kill this program, so also I need another consol, Have can I switch the second consol, if it is there

bado: you have a traditional harddrive install, and it is set up as a multiuser system?
If so you'll need to make some other changes to get the auto-login behaviour that is available in a typical livecd/frugal/embedded system.
This thread might help a little.  Since you want runlevel 2, i think the only file that is relevant is /etc/inittab...the others are specific to runlevel 5.
