[Pianod] Compiling on Raspberry Pi A+

I started dd with count=30000000 last night.  It was still running this
morning.  So, I killed it and restarted it with 1000.  It took
approximately 30 minutes and looks like this:

pi at rasp_A_plus:~/pianod2-213 $ dd if=/dev/random count=1000 | tee foobar |
cksum
2151891374 6080
0+1000 records in
11+1 records out
6080 bytes (6.1 kB) copied, 1592.73 s, 0.0 kB/s

I guess 6080 is a match?

So, I tried rerunning it again with 10000.  It was taking so long, I
finally killed it too.  I will try to get out and get a new sd card today.
I have Pi 3, too.  I might try moving the card to it to see how things go.
