Isn't this already handled by the root.exclude.list? In it e.g. /mnt /mnt? /nfs are listed, so if you'd mount another filesystem there (which seems the obvious choice to me), then you won't have problems backing up root.lrp while your floppy/CF card is mounted. Actually, I regularly backup packages while I have my floppies mounted (on /mnt/fd?) and like the feature that the backup scripts keep them mounted there.
