Hi All
The MPC8548 board i inherited used to boot a CRAMFS that was made by 
mkcramfs in ELDK4.1 using the "-r" option to reverse endian-ness of 
filesystem I have switched over ti ELDK4.2 and noted that there is no 
longer a "-r" for mkcramfs. I compile linux 2.6.27 using ppc_85xx cross 
compiler and powerpc architecture.   Mu cramfs boot fails when U-Boot 
checks the magic no for the cramfs. In my dubuging eforts i came across 
the following while U-Boot checks the magic no:
 cramfs magic= 0x453dcd28 != CRAMFS32 = 0x28cd3d45       
The value read by uboot is a byte swoped version of what it exspects.
how to I go about correcting my cramfs image?
thanks Hendik
