A couple of people suggested in earlier postings on this topic (Bad
Hertz Value in /etc/mnttab) that adding the line "set HZ=60;export HZ"
to /etc/bcheckrc would fix the problem.  Well, it didn't.

Any suggestions?

By the way, the HZ value is related to the task scheduling interrupt
frequency, not the line clock.  You can set it to any value you want
and it has nothing to do with your local power company.
