Hi,

I'm trying to port the NTFS driver to Mac OS X. The PPC chip is big
endian, so I have to worry about byte swapping. I've pretty much got
everything going, except reading files that are not contained in the
MFT. I think that I need to do some byte swapping in ntfs_runtovrun(),
but I would like some help figuring out what is going on in that
routine. Since the buffer is accessed as a byte array, where to byte
swap isn't obvious.

I know this is off topic, but if one of the NTFS developers could point
me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks.
