=== TITLE ===

Make all versions of Mac OS 9 boot successfully in QEMU with all Apple 
extensions
 
 '''Summary:''' Short description of the project

Mac OS 9.2 does boot in QEMU without extensions, but certain extensions that 
ship with Mac OS 9.2 need to be disabled or else they will cause booting to 
fail. We need any issues with OpenBIOS and QEMU fixed so that Mac OS 9 will 
boot successfully in QEMU. 
 
 Detailed description of the project.

These are the known extensions that cause Mac OS 9.2 to crash:
        
• Apple Audio Extension
• Apple Enet
• Multiprocessing folder
• Open Transport aslm modules
• Text Encoding Converter

Without them some applications running in Mac OS 9 are severely limited or 
simply refuse to run.
