Nope. QTPartEd is a graphical application requiring X11/XWindows, and
XWindows is hard to fit on a floppy. There are lots of bootable linux
floppies, but almost all of them only include text-based
(command-line) tools. If you want QTPartEd, bootable CDs (or maybe a
bootable USB flash drive) are better options. The closest you can
come on one floppy is "PartEd and Utilities Disk"
<http://paud.sourceforge.net> which includes the TEXT-BASED version of
PartEd, plus ntfsresize and other goodies.
