I want to create several aliases. How to do it in Busybox in LibreELEC 8.0? I tried to create ~/.profile, but it ignores this file.

Works here:

Code

LibreELEC:~ # cat ~/.profile
alias testp="echo peter"


LibreELEC:~ # testp
peter

Perhaps a simple reboot helps?
My aliases work via .profile as well.
