Extroot/wireless problem

Hello.
I upgraded my TL-WR1043NDv1 that I use for testing for the gargoyle-ispy 1.11.0.x 2019-May-05 03, everything ran smoothly until I plugged in a USB stick to use as extroot. I used Gargoyle's own functionality to format the pendrive and use it as extroot. The problem is that when the router restarted, the wireless network has stopped working, it only appears as 'Disabled', without being able to change anything.
I did a test with the '1.11.0' version and also gave the same problem. I do not know if I did something wrong, I appreciate any help.
Thanks.

1. Do not preserve settings.
2. Try another USB drive.

Try to delete
/overlay and start again.
I suspect that 32MB of RAM will not be enough for these operations in 1.11.X.

Just reset to default and try again.
Lets not go hunting obscure bugs until we've ruled out user error or misadventure.
If it fails on you again, please post your exact steps, and i'll follow them and see if i can replicate the issue.

I've already done this, incusive I went back to the original firmware of TP-Link just to do a "clean install".
The steps I took:
- I installed gargoyle-ispy 1.11.0.x 2019-May-05 03
I logged in first, changed the password and timezone
I configured the WAN (PPPoE), LAN and WLAN connections. Everything worked normally.
I connected the pendrive, unmount, formatted and marked to be used as extroot (all by Gargoyle himself)
After that I did nothing else, the router just reset and then stop the wireless network.
In the Plugins tab appears as the rootdrive the pendrive, and the output of the commands I posted above seems ok.

I'm not at home now, so I can not access the router to do any testing / change.

So the router reboots ok, but the wireless is no longer transmitting? Or the wireless is no longer configured?
How long before the router reset? Or did it reset immediately after making the setting?

O.K.
Oh, I see a problem. The first is to create an extroot and then a custom configuration.
With my command line, you just clean up USB, the extroot should stay.
