My busybox gets corrupted?

                          Recently I just downgraded my busybox to 1.18.2 version using the jRummy's BusyBox Installer. I was previously having busybox preinstalled by CM7.2 custom ROM. 

Then I immediately tried to install the latest, 1.19.4 version using the same app..

It could have shown some error message, but I wasn't sure. Maybe the download didn't proceed fully. But now onwards, I am getting "No root" message when I try to launch the BusyBox Installer. I tried everything, forgetting the app from SuperUser (by chainsfire) app and reauthorizing root for it, clearing data, rebooting the phone etc.

Apps like link2sd also cannot get "root" privileges all of a sudden!!

Strange thing is, z4root app detects my phone as already rooted. And when I try to click "re-root", the process goes on and on and nothing happens.

Why has this happened? Is this because JRummy's busybox overwrites the CM7.2 build one? Should I never try updating busybox when I'm on CM7.2?  or is it because I have to specify correct path? /system/xbin in that busybox installer?

Now all I need is to make busybox and more importantly, get my root back to work properly hopefully without having to reinstall my ROM. Any ideas?

Huawei IDEOS u8150 running Cyanogenmod 7.2-RC1

Update : I tried rooting/unrooting etc using SuperOneClick v 2.3.3.0. It doesn't work either. Here's its log (apparently there are lots of "illegal instruction" errors where it shouldn't be):-
