Binary package “fdflush” in ubuntu bionic

Flush out-of-date disk buffers

 fdflush is a band-aid for floppy (or other) drives with bad disk-change
 sensing. fdflush makes the system believe the disk-change switch has been
 triggered forcing the system to discard the buffered data.
 .
 If you have one of these slightly-broken disk drives, you'll have to run
 fdflush every time you change a disk.
 .
 fdflush is useful for computers which might be sleeping when you change
 floppies or other removable media.
 .
 The command "floppycontrol -f" does the same thing, but the
 fdutils package is significantly larger; it only uses the
 floppy-specific flush ioctl.
 .
 The command "blockdev --flushbufs" only uses the generic flush ioctl.
