hi,
i think script wasn't executed, because you choose wrong runlevel
i found that 'S' means " Single user mode (not to be switched to directly)"
( 
http://manpages.debian.net/cgi-bin/display_man.cgi?id=340cdcdd3b14264b2d744b357da3bf11&format=html 
)
in update-rc.d 'defaults'  is equal to '20 2 3 4 5 . stop 20 0 1 6 .'
(as you see, nowhere S...)
if you choose to start at 2 3 4 5 runlevels should work fine
