Let's pack this:
In [90]: pack('Bh', 0x90, 0x6)
Out[90]: '\x90\x00\x06\x00'
Per default the values are (un)packed with the preferred alignment of the
C compiler, so here is an extra byte to place the short at an even
address. If you give the endianess in the format string there's no
padding:
In [91]: pack('<Bh', 0x90, 0x6)
Out[91]: '\x90\x06\x00'
