In Gutsy there's no init script anymore, but /lib/udev/hdparm instead, which 
gets called through udev for hd[a-z] devices.
It still calls "flush":
/sbin/hdparm -q -f $DISC 2>/dev/null || ret=$?

However, hdparm does not appear to return an error in this case anymore:
$ sudo hdparm -q -f /dev/hdd && echo $?
BLKFLSBUF failed: Function not implemented
0

I guess, this problem has been solved then.

Can you confirm this? You may wand to try the above command on your system and 
see if it echos 0 or something != 0.
Which Ubuntu version are/were you using?
