FAI overwrites start-stop-daemon during the installation (using
dpkg-divert), but after the installation is completed it will restore
the original script. I think this does not work for you. Look at the
log files.

If you set the verbose flag you should see following lines at the end of rcS.log:

Calling task_finish
Removing `diversion of /sbin/init to /sbin/init.distrib by fai'
Removing `diversion of /usr/sbin/liloconfig to /usr/sbin/liloconfig.distrib by fai'
Removing `diversion of /etc/init.d/nis to /etc/init.d/nis.distrib by fai'
Removing `diversion of /sbin/start-stop-daemon to /sbin/start-stop-daemon.distrib by fai'

FAI finished.
