Fair enough. Has anyone got big-endian au1xxx working ever? I'm reasonably flexible to use mipsel, since this is a new board, although all our other products are mipseb. Since big doesn't work as far as I can see. This must a regression as I'm sure I had built a running kernel a month or two back. Currently building a pre-christmas linux-mips snapshot to see if that works. If that doesn't work I'll just start using a mipsel version as I would be wary of using big endian if no one else is.
