Ah, ok, I understand it now. the /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d is used to prevent 
aptitude from starting services when installing packages right? I saw a 
message in debian-mlist titled "Prevent aptitude from starting services", 
and got the impression that services are started right when we chroot 
into the sub system.

thanks for clarification.
