I think porting cramfs is not a good idea.  It's GPL'ed,
doesn't fully support POSIX semantics, and has severe
limitations (16 MB maximum file size, 256 MB maximum file
system size).

It is probably better to design a new file system from
scratch (and make it BSD-licensed).

Just my 2 cents.

Best regards
