You'll have to issue another CFDIRECTORY for each folder in the root or requested start folder.
Now, for the tricky part: If you want the second select box to populate on the client side based on what was selected in the first box, take a good look at the source code for the custom tag CF_TwoSelectsRelated. I'm not sure if you can use this tag "out of the box" given your requirements.
If you can stand another round-trip to the server, just give the selected folder name to CFDIRECTORY and populate the second select box with the results.
