Yes.

For the OP: PicoBSD works fine off a floppy (probably CD too) in 20 MB
RAM (probably 16 too).  Quite easy to learn (from its manpage) and
configure as a bridging or routing firewall.  Don't bother with the
pre-configured versions as they seemed harder to learn about than
picoBSD was to configure.
