I believe the intent was to start quartz-wm from the console mode.
Quartz-wm doesn't require Finder to be running does it?
Well, quartz-wm requires Apple's X11.app, which in turn requires the Quartz
Window Server.
Since we're being pedantic, quartz-wm actually requires Apple's
X11.app or XFree86 4.4. (XFree86 4.4 will be a drop in replacement
for Apple's X11.) On the other hand, quartz-wm itself requires
Quartz. So even with XFree86 4.4, which supports running from the
console, you can't run quartz-wm from the console.
