So why not filling this thread with contents and posting the solution? Since you already created an own thread others might stumble accross this searching for the same and might be disappointed not finding a real answer.

Like me..

 

nodm is used to login the user created at the install.

I came across this topic while searching for the same answer.     

 

First you want to disable the display manager service, but what's it called?   Find out what services are display related:

 

Here's how I found out which service to disable:

chris@trippy:~$ systemctl list-units | grep -i display
nodm.service loaded active running LSB: No Display Manager

Now, I want to disable the service called "nodm" (which is a cute but very confusing name):

sudo systemctl disable nodm
sudo reboot

this solution is said to work regardless of which distro:  systemctl set-default multi-user.target
