I have downloaded the v1.0 stable windows executable file and ran it on a
windows machine to format and copy the necessary LRP packages to a floppy
disk.  When I boot on the disk for the first time, everything is fine;
however once I have added a few new modules (*.o files in /boot/lib/modules)
and backed up my initrd.lrp package, I see read errors when writing the new
lrp image to the disk.

If anyone can help me out here I'd be greatful.  So far, this has happened
with 7 diskettes and I'm beginning to doubt the fact it's the disks that are
the problem as the diskettes have worked fine in the past.

Thanks for any help on the matter!

If the error is something like "Could not mount device" then your disk is still mounted from when you added the new modules and you need to unmount it first. (You'll have to reboot and start again once this has happened, I think)

If the backup seems to go OK with some packages and then starts producing errors along the lines of "Could not save..." (or similar), then it is because your disk is full.

You can hopefully avoid this by removing unneeded modules before backing up. Look for modules that are in /lib/modules but which are commented out in /etc/modules and remove them from /lib/modules.
