I'd recommend the floppy formatter instead. Gparted is way overkill to
format floppies, and it is easy to break stuff. 

Right-click the Applications menu to edit the menu. In the left pane go
to System Tools. Click it, then check the box next to Floppy Formatter.
This will add the floppy formatter to the System Tools menu. Start it
from there.
