In a sense doesn't it do this already.. if you open the software sources
menu the uncheck a source and click save and quit.  it will put an
ignore tag on this item in /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg.  This source is still
configured and can be re-activated any time you'd like but for the
moment urpmi -a and urpmi xxxxxxxxxxxxxx will not access this media.  I
use it all the time for boxes so I don't have to carry disks with me
everywhere I go.
