Ok, I was able to reproduce this error on an IA32 system, running the 
redhat 2.6.9-5.EL (UP kernel) with the IB patches applied. It turned out
to be a problem with the HCA card that had older firmware, 3.0.1.

I updated the firmware to 3.3.2 and the system booted OK and everything 
seems to work fine.
