I can see the following print out when the filesystem is built for big endian mode. "Swapping filesystem endian-ness" Though I don't know if there is a command to check the endianess of a filesystem directly. And below is the header info of the busybox showing it is a big endian object. readelf -h busybox-1.14.3/busybox ELF Header: Magic: 7f 45 4c 46 01 02 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Class: ELF32 Data: 2's complement, big endian Version: 1 (current) OS/ABI: UNIX - System V ABI Version: 0 Type: EXEC (Executable file) Machine: MIPS R3000 Version: 0x1 Entry point address: 0x4001b0 Start of program headers: 52 (bytes into file) Start of section headers: 926564 (bytes into file) Flags: 0x50001007, noreorder, pic, cpic, o32, mips32 Size of this header: 52 (bytes) Size of program headers: 32 (bytes) Number of program headers: 3 Size of section headers: 40 (bytes) Number of section headers: 19 Section header string table index: 18 Thanks, Andrew
