Try SeaBIOS? I don't think FILO has a floppy driver.

yeah, I guess that's the only option.
Has anyone tried it however.

I've tested qemu+SeaBIOS with floppies. I'm sure qemu+coreboot+SeaBIOS would work with floppies, but it's currently disabled. (If you look in src/floppy.c you'll see a specific test that turns off floppy support when coreboot support is enabled.) I disabled the support because I wasn't sure if it would work on real hardware and I didn't want to complicate testing of other things.
