Getting 12Mhz on ATMega8 without crystal

Working with limited resources is exceptionally challenging and definitely tends to give a headache but it sure gets the neurons firing. Trying to get an ATmega8 to run at MHz without a crystal and a limited set of resistors at my disposal.

Got a RC clock running with a 220+470 ohm (That's all I had) and the internal 36pF on an ATMega8. Have no means of checking the exact clock.

Q to Solve : How to check freq of uC without Oscilloscope?

PS. I'm planning to use "Q to Solve" to annotate questions that come up that I don't know how to solve but want to eventually.
