text2pcap(1) lists the hexdump format understood by text2pcap as the
output of "od -Ax -tx1". By default most od versions suppress duplicate
lines which may cause text2pcap to output a truncated .pcap file. This
can be avoided by using "od -Ax -tx1 -v":

$ dd if=/dev/zero ibs=1c count=42 of=ftpdatazero42.bin
42+0 records in
0+1 records out
42 bytes (42 B) copied, 0.000333301 s, 126 kB/s
