How to install Ubuntu 16.10 without any gui? [duplicate]

I want to start my computer and it should open up to a CLI. I don't want a GUI, no fancy login screen etc.

I need a solution that does not use a minimal ISO because it requires an internet connection. I need an offline installation.


Solution 1:

You can install Ubuntu Server. Ubuntu Server 16.10

Just download the ISO file and make a installation USB disk with UltraISO or other tools, and install it on your computer offline.

Solution 2:

You can install Ubuntu 16.04.1+ LTS (up to date 2017-01-15) with mkusb-nox or mkusb-dus in text mode from a compressed image file according to the following link,

This picture shows what it looks like after log in.
