ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/re...LEASE/floppies

for the actual files. There's a README in that directory, and the handbook discusses the issue of boot floppies in detail. (That link is to the images for 4.8-RELEASe, btw)

Read the README - you don't actually need boot.flp, and the other images are 1.4MB.
