Could you build this?
No Configuring OpenWrt swap, overlayfs (extroot), and kernel-level USB storage drivers on embedded router hardware requires embedded Linux systems engineering.
What it would actually take: Implementation requires configuring OpenWrt rootfs overlays (block-mount, kmod-usb-storage, fstab) and configuring zram or swap partitions directly on resource-constrained MIPS/ARM router hardware. The hard parts involve managing Linux block devices, safe fallback boot partitions to prevent bricking during USB failure, and kernel filesystem drivers. Requires hands-on embedded Linux systems administration and hardware debugging.
