Hello and thanks for the answer it helped a lot!!!

I finally installed the ibverbs libraries using the debian packages  
and ibumad using the source files from openfabrics...
I also had to put --disable-f77 --disable-f90 for the configure into  
the make.mvapich2.ofa script...

The installation finished succesfully!!

I now have another problem...:

After the initialization phase I try to run the test ./cpi and I get  
the following errors:

-----------------
g5k at bordeplage-9:~/mvapich2-1.0.2/examples$ mpdboot -n 2 -f ~/nodes
g5k at bordeplage-9:~/mvapich2-1.0.2/examples$ mpdtrace

/usr/local/mvapich2/bin/mpirun -machinefile ~/nodes -n 2 ./cpi

     This will severely limit memory registrations.

----------------

I also try to run another program previously compiled using  
/usr/local/mvapich2/bin/mpicc

and I get the following:

----------------
g5k at bordeplage-9:~$ /usr/local/mvapich2/bin/mpirun -machinefile  
~/nodes -n 2 BENCHS/esp-2.1.1/src-mvapich2/pchksum -t 5
Attempting to use an MPI routine before initializing MPICH
Attempting to use an MPI routine before initializing MPICH

----------------

Any ideas where those problems may come from?

yiannis
