My understanding is that if the link is a hard link 
then /proc/PID/exe points to the hard link. If the link is a soft 
link then /proc/PID/exe points to the name that results from 
dereferencing the soft links.

If I am correct, when it worked you were using hard links to busybox 
but now you are using soft links ?
