Something like that. This came up a while back (around 2.2.13 I think)
on the -workstation list. I didn't pay enough attention at the time, but
I think it switched from being always little-endian to being
native-endian. At least, I don't recall any x86 folks screaming about
it... ;)

I think without reformatting your only option is to use 'hda=swapdata'.

Probably. If that doesn't work shop around. ;)
