That breaks your existing busybox setup. Try using ramdisk BL2 to
remove /bin/busybox and replace all of the links that pointed to
/bin/busybox/busybox with links to your new busybox. If you have
installed GNU find, then:

cd /; find -exec ls -l '{}' ';' | grep "busybox/busybox"

It might be calling e.g. /bin/cat instead of just cat.

Is sha1sum listed in busybox --help? If not, then I don't see how my
script could have possibly made that link.

Manually? I can't think of a script that would do this automatically.
