The 3000 battery backed clock requires the 2.0 SetClock program. My SetClock
runs fine under either 1.3 or 2.0.

Is there a way to set the A3000 battery clock under OS 1.3.2?
The 2.0 setclock will only run under 2.0 and the 1.3 will not find
the clock.  I deleted the one on the 1.3.2 partition when I repartitioned
the drive, I thought it would be the same one as on the 1.3.2 floppy that
came with the machine.

The setclock that will set your A3000 real time clock under 1.3 lives
on the Install disk, and gets copied to the 1.3 partition during
software installation.  

I wanted to keep the 1.3 Workbench disk itself untouched...
