That line is only valid for PV domU, and booting from floppy is not
possible on PV domU.
Try HVM domU. Some info that might be useful:
- /etc/xen/xmexample.hvm
- run "xm create --help_config"  (look for fd)
- see http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2007-01/msg01147.html
and http://markmail.org/message/2shfnwxctn5vimxz
