There was a list? Wow.

Here's what I did:

- Boot up from the Mac OS 9 CD
- Choose "Custom Install" in the Mac OS 9 Installer
- Deselect everything except "core system"
- Let the installer finish

This nets you an OS 9 System Folder that is very, very lean and mean. It
won't boot your computer, most likely, but it will be enough to run Classic.

My OS 9 System Folder is 100 MB, and that is after several Classic
applications have added their crap to it. I think it was closer to half that
size when I just installed it.
