hmmm...
these are the last lines from your log ?
[ 1.603441] Please be patient, while System loads ...
[ 1.608472] Waiting 1 sec before mounting root device...
[ 2.664104] VFS: Mounted root (squashfs filesystem) readonly on device 254:0.
since the image i provided is wrt3200acm based, maybe the rest of DTS is not compatible with wrt32x.
i will try to create another img starting from wrt32x image instead.
your log stops just before starting to load devices. mine looks like that :
Try to test the version of OPENWRT/lede which does not need to flash into the memory of the router, i.e. stock firmware intact. This version is loaded from the port USB2/ESATA. For this you will need only USB-Flash, and USB-Com TTL cable, for the initial modification of Env-nandboot and Altnandboot. I have no wrt32x, but I have experienced wrt3200acm.

Can you please give a brief explanation of what this will accomplish and why it will/should work?
P.S. Explain as if giving a presentation at an assisted-living community
FIRMWARE:OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r8217-2cc821e / LuCI Master (git-18.276.41146-280dd33) MODEM:ARRIS SURFBoard SB8200 ROUTER:Linksys WRT32X USB NAS:Western Digital BLACK 1 TB Hardrive + Startech USB 3.0 External SATA III Enclosure
1. Formitirovat USB Flash with -O^64bit is necessary to ensure proper reading of EXT4 U-boot file system, because U-boot does not work with 64bit view, only with 32bit.
2. Changing the variables nanboot and altnanboot forces the loader to search the kernel on the USB router.
3. After loading the kernel and running it, the kernel looks for rootfs on the external media, the option -
Kernel command line: rootdelay=5 root=/dev/sda1 rootfstype=ext4 rw init=/sbin/init console=ttyS0, 115200
4. In rootfs I removed all calls to the partitions of the NAND router. Hope All
This method of loading does not affect the stock firmware, which makes it possible to almost completely avoid turning the router into a brick.
***This shows only as possible another method to load the device.
I’m going to try the process described above with a DD-WRT image when my WRT32X arrives. The only change I intend to make is updating one partition instead of both. I’ll post results as soon as I have them (middle - end of upcoming week). _________________ DD-WRT Installation & Setup TUTORIAL http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=311117

The cool thing which works on mine now i can reboot into the official firmware from the LEDE webinterface
glad to see that. this was a lede image from https://davidc502sis.dynamic-dns.net , modified by me to fit into wrt32x partition layout.it is kernel 4.14.
i dont know why ddwrt image didnt work, and i think for dd-wrt you have to pray am wait for BrainSlayer to fix it. since i dont have a wrt32x i can not test, only i did was assumtions, but something i miss somehow.
EDIT: for this lede image i changed partitions to be smaller, maybe it will be working to ddwrt too.

Everything is working Fine so far. Only Thing i noticed: It says WRT3200ACM as Model. But i guess it is because it was originally a firmware for this one.
