Hi!

I already started working on this feature some time ago. I think I am able to 
mount cramfs images with another endianness. But all I have to test this are 
images that use LZO compression istead of deflate.

In the original post I was just asking somebody possessing a big endian 
machine to create an image in big endian / deflate format. This would help me 
a lot. Later, I want to add support for multiple compression algorithms.

Thanks so far,
	Andi
