You're byteswapping. asdf isn't 66647361, it's 61736466. You did this on an
x86 box, which stores words in byteswapped (little-endian) order. See this
blog entry for important safety tips on mistakes like this:

You should do this for your od:
od -tx1
which will spit things out one byte at a time, neatly avoiding byteswapping.
Try again without the byteswapping (and without the newline, you got that
part right).
