please dont lock this plz help

Well distrowatch myfriend

But also I think you should checkout Debian net install. (or the even smaller one)
I dont think it fits on a Floppy but still.
As WindowsManager (if you really need one)
id go for Open/Fluxbox or xfce(witch it still big)

Check this page for floppy-based distros.
Note: I have not tried any of these distros, so I can't recommend which to choose.
