For some reason on the latest version of BusyBox-Installer, it installed all its applets into my root directory, which is not listed as a binary executable directory in Android's default path, which means none of my shells see any BusyBox applets. To add further problems, my root filesystem is now read-only, so I can't rm -f this big mess. Menu > Remove in the app just tried to remove applets from /system/xbin, problem is the applets were never installed there, they were installed in / instead.

I can probably remount with mount -o rw,remount / and run find / -maxdepth 1 -type f -perm /a=x ! -name "*.rc" | while read f; do mv $f /system/xbin to safely move the applets to their correct directory, but this issue is still outside of the expected behavior of this application, despite the easy fix. [EDIT]: I ran these, and it fixed everything, expected behavior now and bb works.

I am running AndroidTV 11 on an Nvidia Shield TV (2017)
Linux 4.9.324-R1.8-13792-g4345c83ea90f custom compiled kernel Stock Rom rooted with Magisck & Xposed Framework.

Not sure where this application stores logs if any.
