Looks easy to fix. Any objections to changing the mkinitrd-busybox config
from:
CONFIG_BUSYBOX_EXEC_PATH="/bin/busybox"
# CONFIG_TR is not set
to:
CONFIG_BUSYBOX_EXEC_PATH="/proc/self/exe"
CONFIG_TR=y

When busybox is installed in the initramfs, we have /proc/self/exe ->
/bin/busybox, so it should not make a difference (though, I have not
actually tried, will do later).

Cheers,

Tom
