Install from macOS ARM to Orbic is failing with "rootshell is not giving us root"

[offbyone]

Rayhunter Version

v0.5.1

Device

Orbic RC400L

Installer OS

macOS

Describe the Issue

I attempted to run the installer:

$ ./installer orbic
Forcing a switch into the debug mode to enable ADB
ADB enabled, waiting for reboot... it's alive!
Waiting for atfwd_daemon to startup... done
Installing rootshell...
Failed to install rayhunter on the Orbic RC400L

Caused by:
115fd169c3a53d967d947  /bin/rootshellSYSCMD=mv /tmp/rootshell /bin/rootshell

A second attempt resulted in this:

$ ./installer orbic
Forcing a switch into the debug mode to enable ADB
Device already in command mode. Doing nothing...
ADB enabled, waiting for reboot... it's alive!
Waiting for atfwd_daemon to startup... done
Installing rootshell...
Failed to install rayhunter on the Orbic RC400L

Caused by:
    rootshell is not giving us root.

However, the rootshell is there and puts the session in root:

$ ./installer util shell
opening shell
/ $ id
id
uid=2000 gid=2000 groups=1004,1007,1011,1015(sdcard),1028,3001,3002,3003,3006
/ $ rootshell
rootshell
bash-4.3# id
id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
bash-4.3#

So I'm not quite sure what to do next. How do I either reset things to a clean state, or make the installer proceed?

Turning the orbic off and on again let me get a /bin/rootshell that was actually root again, so I read install.ps1 and manually finished the steps using adb directly. I'll leave this up in case the bug report is useful to someone else, but here's what I did:

$ ./installer orbic
Forcing a switch into the debug mode to enable ADB
Device already in command mode. Doing nothing...
ADB enabled, waiting for reboot... it's alive!
Waiting for atfwd_daemon to startup... done
Installing rootshell...

bash-4.3# shutdown -r -t 1 now

Which, as far as I can tell, has worked; I now see the green bar on the screen and rayhunter's webserver works over USB.

we tried to add some guidance in the docs but the new installer that we'd recommend for windows is ./installer orbic-network

EDIT: sorry, this is MacOS. in any case the network installer will probably work around this issue too
