RE: problems on Quadra 700
Or, by hand, simply empty the Extensions folder (and perhaps Control Panels) in the System folder of everything except what you want. Move the unwanted items to a new folder. Extension Manager does the same thing, moving unwanted items to Extensions (Disabled) and Control Panels (Disabled) folders. Penguin goes in the Startup Items folder.
Lurking, but thinking of getting back into Linux.

I think you should be able to create a no-extensions setup with
Extension Manager that loads no extensions, but still loads startup
items like Penguin. I'm almost positive you can do that in 7.5.5 or
some other freely-downloadable MacOS, but I can't directly verify that
before tonight.
