2. BootX (Apple) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BootX_(Apple)

   This bootloader was used in all Macintosh computers until mid-1998. [9] With the advent of the iMac series of Macintoshes, the firmware was updated. [10] The ROM was reduced in size to 1 MB, called BootROM, and the remainder of the ROM was moved to the file Mac OS ROM in the Mac OS System Folder, stored on the hard drive. [9]

3. Old World ROM - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_World_ROM

   Since the Old World ROM usually boots to Toolbox, most OSs have to be installed using a boot loader from inside Mac OS (BootX is commonly used for Linux installations). 68K-based Macs and NuBus Power Macs must have Mac OS installed to load another OS (even A/UX, which was an Apple product), usually with virtual memory turned off.

4. New World ROM - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_World_ROM

   One major difference between Old World ROM Macs and New World ROM Macs, at least in Classic Mac OS, is that the Gestalt selector for the machine type is no longer usable; all New World ROM Macs use the same mach ID, 406 decimal, and the actual machine ID is encoded in the "model" and "compatible" properties of the root node of the Open Firmware ...

   On other systems, like the Apple II and Atari 8-bit computers, almost all software is self-booting. On the IBM PC, the distinction is between a self-booting program and one which is started by the user via an operating system such as MS-DOS or IBM PC DOS. The term "PC booter" was not contemporaneous with when self-booting games were being released.

7. Macintosh clone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_clone

   Only UMAX ever obtained a license to ship Mac OS 8 and get Mac OS 8 upgrade disks, which expired in July 1998 (Power Computing also got Mac OS 8 disks by their acquisition by Apple). [19] All other manufacturers had their Macintosh clone contract terminated by late 1997 and either continued their brands as PC clones or discontinued them ...

   This iteration would be used for all versions of Classic Mac OS up to Mac OS 9.2.2, the last version of the Classic Mac OS operating system.
