Add a symbolic link to /etc/inid.d/postgresql in /etc/inid.d/rcd.6 and 
/etc/inid.d/rcd.0 (reboot and shutdown)

ln -s /etc/init.d/postgresql /etc/inid.d/rcd.0/K15postgresql

The K make the call with 'stop'.
At boottime there's proberly a call to  /etc/inid.d/rcd.0/S85postgresql

where the S makes the call with 'start'

To shutdown manually just su to root and run
'/etc/init.d/postgresql stop'

The links kan be accomplished by running (as root) tksysv (a gui to start 
and stop services)
