So, as I mentioned very early on, I have no real experience with OpenWrt,, or router firmware in general.. My background is in Infosec and I did custom Android ROMs back before Google decided to lock it down.
That being said, I've been expanding my knowledge base (always awesome), but it means I'm feeling my way thru the darkness at times.
This is one of those times..
I recently got introduced to binwalk, which allows me to dig into the ELF-binary files the Shield uses..
One of the things I just noticed.. The original images from Itus are LITTLE-ENDIAN built.. The images I'm building a BIG-ENDIAN.. I'm not sure exactly the difference is (except the most vs least significant bits) programmatically or what effects it might have.. I don't SEE an issue in things so far, but I've always built it as BE..
Does anyone have an info they can share on this and which might be better for a mips64 system?
