For those not following the bug report there was a change introduced
by the busybox package maintainer wherein the 1.21 ebuild changed from
allyesconfig to defconfig. I never used 1.21 so I didn't see it until
we got a stable upgrade.

The change I made was adding

/bin/busybox --install -s

immediately before my mount commands. Please note that without the
explicit /bin/busybox the busybox binary wasn't found and nothing was
fixed.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
