I had a look at the "integrator cp" user guide. This board and the related 
core modules are supposed to be able to work in big endian mode (even if some 
components are not compatible like the Ethernet controller).

Do you know some other big-endian platform ?

I do not understand one more issue: I do not guess how a real big-endian board 
can be useful. Is it for checking whether the Linux kernel is working in such 
a configuration ?

Best regards.

Alexis.
