Personally, I prefer file management by means of a terminal emulator and
ls(1), cp(1), mv(1), rm(1), find(1) etc. If you insist on having a file manager
program: Gmc has been the default filemanager before Nautilus appeared 
on the screen.

Enter control-center, launch `Session Properties & Startup Programs', enter
`Startup Programs', click `Browse Currently Running Programs' button, select
`nautilus' in `Session Properties' window, check style `Normal', click `Remove' 
and save the current session.

Next time Gnome will come up without Nautilus.
