Considering that earths atmosphere in the beginning was toxic to breathe and the first believed signs of life were bacteria I would think that the bacteria relied on photosynthesis and the toxins in the air to make C6H12O6 or glucose and O2 which would explain the oxygen explosion, but as far as relying on oxygen there really wouldn't be an anaerobic need to produce ATP through glycolysis until later in evolution
