How to disable it in that manner?

In the container I did install policycoreutils (as shown at 
http://wiki.1tux.org/wiki/Centos6/Installation/Minimal_installation_using_yum 
I have only centos-release and the essential packages) and have

# echo 0 >selinux/enforce
# cat etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=disabled

in the the lxc container I can do now

[root at pgsql ~]# sestatus
SELinux status:                 enabled
SELinuxfs mount:                /selinux
Current mode:                   enforcing
Mode from config file:          disabled
Policy version:                 24
Policy from config file:        targeted

which disables selinux obviously.

BTW, for root login all what I did was to disable all
pam_selinux.so  pam_loginuid.so lines in /etc/pam.d/login !
