There is an unfortunate interaction between Superclock, the Lisp, and the
128K ROM. (The executive summary is that one could reasonably blame any
of the three products; people who are really interested in the gory details
are welcome to send me mail. Be forewarned that they -are- gory.)
We tried to work around this in the last moments before 1.3 shipped;
unfortunately, we blew it (this is why 1.3 works once in this environment
while 1.2 didn't work at all.)
Anyhow, I think that the enclosed INIT -does- fix the problem. If I
remember the details, it should also enable 1.2.2 to work with SuperClock
and Multifinder on Pluses and SEs, but I didn't test this.
